#UntitledThree by Michael Pedersen
A follow up to the immensely popular #UntitledOne and #UntitledTwo. This year’s anthology gives us more of the promising and established names in British poetry who have all shared the Neu! Reekie! bill. Many of the works are new, many are favourites read at the events; all are savoured, sublime, sumptuous voices within poetry already.'An immaculate example of the make-your-own-scene ethos…Edinburgh-based but with eagle eyes on the world, Neu Reekie retains a gonzo spontaneity…there is broad diversity in form and content'
* Scotland on Sunday *'Whether or not the poems laid out for us within these splendid royal purple covers are written before or after the pandemic, the magic of poetry means we can find common ground'
* God in the TV zine *'Neu Reekie is one of the best spoken word-cabaret-avant garde nights out in Edinburgh, who have taken their unique brand of entertainment across the worldTheir latest volume of poetry, featuring artists who have appeared on the Neu Reekie stage, has poems and music for every mood'
