I've got news! GREEKLING has made the (dreamy) shortlist for the 2024 The Anglo-Hellenic League Runciman Award, given annually by the The Anglo-Hellenic League to a book about Greece/Hellenism 🏆📚🦉 Teenage me, on the verge of moving to England in 1999, would never believe this... I'm thrilled & truly honoured 🙏
Congratulations to Kostya Tsolakis who has been shortlisted for the The Anglo-Hellenic League Runciman Award with his astounding debut poetry collection. What a joy to select and review Greekling (@NineArchesPress) for the PoetryBookSoc last Winter.

I'm still buzzing from last night's GREEKLING party at the Hellenic Centre 🌼🌼🌼🇬🇷 was great to read some poems live for the first time & do a Q&A with alice hiller – thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to everyone who came 🧡🧡🧡 (& you know I can't resist a #bogselfie 🤳🏼)

It’s out! My debut poetry collection, GREEKLING, a PBS Recommendation, published by Nine Arches Press on the feast of St Dimitri 🌼🌼🌼 While I still grieve the loss of my father this month, it comforts me to have created something that owes so much to Dad’s love for poetry 🖤🧡📖
November 2024 brings Self-Portrait With Family by Amaan Hyder. Weaving familial & queer traditions and archives, stretching across generational perspectives, an autobiographical collection about coming out to family and coming out into a gay community defined by whiteness. /11
And also in October 2024, Caleb Parkin publishes a second collection of poems. Mingle exposes the copious toxicities in landscapes and bodies, through poems bubbling with the intoxications of hyper-wealth and climate nationalism. /10
October 2024 sees publication of The Tattoo Collector - the debut poems by tim tim cheng 🐸 (she/they). Ranging between Hong Kong, Scotland, and London, this powerful collection explores the intertwined relationship between the body, ecology and class. /9
March 2024 brings Khairani Barokka's third book - amuk - which sheds light on the devastating and ongoing effects of a single word's mistranslation, and emphasises what exists in opposition to such hostile histories and presents: hope, resistance, and joy. /3
This Thursday 26th is publication day for GREEKLING. Join Kostya Tsolakis Gay's The Word for a launch night, the first of some wonderful events, in-person and online, to mark the book's arrival.
