Durham and other sequences
Published by West House 2002
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
Durham & Other Sequences features a series of composite texts and a world of subject material, from Astor in the New World to Cuthbert in the Anglo-Saxon North-East, via rural scenes, metropolitan furnishing, a garnish of top vegetables and a prison visit. Can poetry cope with any subject material? In three decades of published poetry Bill Griffiths has never stopped trying to find out. Typeset at Five Seasons Press. Cover image by Robert Clark.

Bill Griffiths
Collected Earlier Poems (1966-80)
Ed. Alan Halsey, Ken Edwards
Published by Reality Street 2010
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
This volume brings together for the first time Bill Griffiths’ poetry up to ‘Building: The New London Hospital’, including the ‘Cycles’ and ‘War W/ Windsor’ sequences that so astonished readers when they first appeared, as well as much other poetry that was published by his own Pirate Press imprint, Writers Forum and other small presses in the 1970s; and also poems and performance texts that have only made fleeting appearances in ephemeral pamphlets and magazines, or have never been published before. The works are presented in largely chronological order. Comprehensive endnotes detail both the publishing history and variations in texts and alternative versions.
