IN PURSUIT OF EXPRESSION

Published in April 2025 by Earth Island Books, this collection brings together all of Martin Appleby's small press poetry publications that were released between 2016 and 2024.

From the early musings of his 20s to staring down the barrel of 40, and all the heartbreak, hangovers, and bad decisions he has made along the way. These poems are full of heart, hope, and unguarded honesty. They will make you laugh, and they will make you cry. A journey through the highs and lows of modern life through the eyes of a cider drinking, vegetarian, scumbag punk!
