30 Poems in 30 Days

In 2020, Amanda Dalton participated for the second year running in National Poetry Writing Month, a project that challenges the public to write a poem every day throughout the month of April. Each midnight, new instructions are posted informing participants what they should write about in the next 24 hours anything from an ode to lifes small pleasures to a concrete poem, to a poem from the viewpoint of a figure in Boschs The Garden of Earthly Delights. This chapbook contains the unedited versions of the thirty poems that Amanda wrote. By turns witty (often very funny), clever, moving and erudite, this short collection represents an astonishing achievement by an outstanding writer. See more
