The Best Poetry Book in the World by Jenn Hart

The Best Poetry Book in the World is a collection of popular poems from published poets from the last five years. Celebrating Burning Eye's 5th birthday, this anthology brings together all the anthems, the foot stompers, finger clickers, belly laughing crowd-pleasers under one cover. Prepare yourselves.

Jenn Hart is a poet and musician who speaks for herself. Her poetry is sharp and witty as she rips apart the stigmas of mental health, feminism and growing up in a punk scene, far from perfect. In 2013 Jenn released a zine of poems Scraped Knees and Sob Stories and it was so good someone got the cover art tattooed in their leg. She set off on a DIY spoken word tour (Riot Nrrrds) with fellow punk poet Henry Raby in 2014 and has performed at festivals, community centres, squats, caravans, kitchens and back rooms all over the country. She has had work published with She Grrrowls, The Riot Grrrl Project and CHAPESS Zine. her debut collection was released by Burning Eye in 2017. Entrepreneur, editor and poetry activist Clive Birnie has been cutting things up to make poems from them since 1994. Some of these have been published by The Delinquent and Streetcake and a fourteen poem sequence of thought fragments cut from overheard conversations and management seminars between 1994 and 1998 was published as a e-chapbook by Silkworms Ink in 2012.
