Poetry Booklets
all booklets contain 28 pages or more
all covers are designed by the author

The first nine titles were produced in samisdat edition in the 1980s
the new covers have been designed to be as near as possible to the originals
The final three were never produced in samisdat
All the poems in these 12 booklets are in the collected edition
but these are more beautiful!
the pages have decorative edging and are laid out so that each poem appears within its own framed page,
or more than one framed page if a long poem - there is no continuous running over as with the collected edition
