Announcing Star Reverse, a new collection by Linda Ann StrangWe are proud to announce the publication in April 2022 of Star Reverse, a collection by poet Linda Ann Strang. Our first of two releases in 2022, is a compelling and daunting collection where poetry and all the known demands of writing it are constantly deconstructed. Using a no-nonsense approach devoid of self-pity, Strang applies wry acerbic humour coupled with a fine technical skill to debunk commonly held perceptions on an array of topics including femicide and gender-based violence, physical and mental illness, death, childhood and ageing, sex and sexuality, armed conflict and political violence. It is a complex, brilliant volume of poetry, blending the intellectual with the intuitive and featuring an array of intertexts including fairy tales, the tarot, the Bible, and art in various forms, interwoven with primordial wisdoms and mythology. Watch out for our cover reveal on Tuesday 1 March 2022, followed by the announcement of the launch dates, our video trailer and a Pre-Launch Special Offer!Linda Ann Strang has a Master’s degree in English Literature and a Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education from Nelson Mandela University where she works in the field of Learning and Teaching Development. She is also the editor-in-chief of Hotazel Review.Read More
