ARCHIPELAGO, Issue Two (Clutag Press, 2008) |
Announcing the publication of ARCHIPELAGO Issue Two, available April 2008
Clutag Press is delighted to inform you that the second issue of ARCHIPELAGO is now available.
To speak geographically, this issue ranges from Donegal, Derry and Antrim to Scotland, via Galloway, Skye and Cromarty, to descend into England at Filey Brigg. It delays a few days to explore the Wash (neither sea nor land), then puts out again to round the Norfolk and Suffolk coasts. As it progresses it turns the archipelago this way and that, celebrating it across a host of literary, artistic, linguistic, historic, political and topographical trajectories and perspectives.

Paul Abbott - FLOOD (Clutag Press, 2008) |
Announcing the forthcoming publication of FLOOD by Paul Abbott with illustrations by Gail McNeillie, available February 2008
Limited edition of 100 copies.
22pp 170mm x 240mm ISBN 0-9553476-2-9
 Paul Abbott's poem FLOOD is a 'Waste Land' for the twenty-first century, a timely and daring debut in the disaster genre, by a twenty-one-year-old in his final year at Oxford. Those who have read the first issue of Clutag's magazine Archipelago will have enjoyed a snapshot of the poem in its pages. Now it is offered complete in ten sections, illustrated with eight
superbly grainy drawings by Gail McNeillie. The vision here - 'an Epic Newsflash' - is one of post-apocalyptic catastrophe 'couched,' we're told in a prefatory note 'somewhat in the film-cutting style of Soviet montage theory (which I read about on Wikipedia)'.

ARCHIPELAGO, Issue One (Clutag Press, 2007) |
Announcing the forthcoming publication of ARCHIPELAGO Issue One, available Summer 2007
ARCHIPELAGO is a new literary magazine preoccupied with landscape, with the littoral and vestigial, liminal and subliminal, at the margins, in the unnameable constellation of islands on the Eastern Atlantic coast, known variously in other millennia as Britain, Great Britain, Britain and Ireland - even, too, too readily, the United Kingdom. But while the unnameable archipelago is its subject, its vision is by implication global, and its concerns with the state of the planet could not be more of the hour.

Tom Paulin - The Camouflage School (Clutag Press, 2007) |
Announcing the forthcoming publication of The Camouflage School by Tom Paulin, available Spring/Summer 2007
Limited edition of 250 copies.
36pp 170mm x 240mm ISBN 0-9553476-0-2
The five poems in this important collection - 'Sidney Philip' (a poem about Philip Larkin, his father and the war), 'Battle of the Atlantic', 'My Name is Edward Wadsworth', 'Convoy to Archangel', 'Noor Inayat Khan (S.O.E. Dachau)' - are all published here for the first time. They show Tom Paulin writing as movingly, passionately, and inventively as ever he has written before. Part of his continuing 'loose-leaf' epic of the Second World War, begun in 2002 with The Invasion Handbook, these poems bear unflinching, compassionate witness to the tragedy of war, and in particular the special horrors of war at sea.

Ian Niall: Part of his Life |
Announcing the forthcoming publication of Ian Niall: Part of his Life by Andrew McNeillie, available March 2007
 ‘...We owe Andrew McNeillie a great debt for reintroducing us to the most neglected of writers.’
Douglas Gifford
Ian Niall was the pen name of John McNeillie (1916-2002). Between them they wrote more than forty books, over a period of as many years, from 1939 when at twenty-two John McNeillie published Wigtown Ploughman: Part of His Life, with Putnam of London and New York, a Scottish classic still in print, a book that raised a national controversy, leading to housing reform.
