Edited by award-winning poet and translator – and keen walker - Sasha Dugdale. Included are poems by Matthew Clegg, Choman Hardi, Karen McCarthy Woolf, Stephanie Northgate and Stephen Watts. Includes one poetry pamphlet, envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. 20 pages. Measures 35.7 x 19.3 cm.
