Description
10 Poets is a series of books in which poets are invited to turn their skills to new and surprising ends.Poets are spies by nature. Nondescript these days, they’re subtle and ever-watchful. Shifty in their skins, you might say. They are practised at fleeing and giving pursuit, and quick to reach for a pen (which may conceal a poison dart). They keep eyes on one another, crossing paths in out-of-the-way places to exchange vital capsules of encoded information. Most importantly, they are experts at slipping the grip of rival operatives, at least one of whom is their own dark double. For a time, anyway. And when called out of retirement to do their bit – well, take any reticence with a pinch of cyanide salt…
