Title: Englandcollapsed
Description: Englandcollapsed, is the debut collection of poems from rising English star, John Denny. Denny conjures a world of penalties, magical cities, of devils and of extraordinary classical beauty, of bruised sky and nightmarish visions, beyond the naked eye. Uniquely, Denny situates his readers, with himself, at the heart of the narrative, with a sense that everything you know, at any point, might collapse. Denny captures these stories, and takes the reader on an epic literary journey into the dark heart of these epiphanies, seen through the luminous lens of film, dreams and colour. It is a dark and brilliant achievement.

'I read somewhere that the better the book, the harder it is to put into other words. The idea that the book makes a rallying call. Denny wanted to write something that made people go wow where did that come from, like a brick thrown through the window of England. Englandcollapsed is a state of being, another country, another world. I urge you to answer the call.' Inside Out Poetry
