Kim Moore is one of the leading poets in the UK today. Her first collection, The Art of Falling (2015) won the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize, and her second collection, 'All the Men I Never Married', won the 2022 Forward Prize for Best Collection. She is a Lecturer in Creative Writing at Manchester Metropolitan University. Kaycee Hill, a working-class, mixed-heritage poet, was joint winner of the inaugural James Berry Poetry Prize 2021. Her debut collection, Hot Sauce, ‘transform(s) the contemporary into a mythic, lyrical landscape’ (Malika Booker). Jo Eades, from Clifton Wood, was selected for Apples and Snakes' cohort of Future Voices and won the Lyra Poetry and WOMAD Festival Slams 2024. All three poets are, in their different ways, superb readers and performers of their poems.
