  Morden Tower is one of Britain's best-known literary landmarks. For the past twenty-five years, hundreds of poets have come from all over the world to give readings in this strange turret-room on Newcastle's medieval city walls. This anthology by fifty British, Irish, and American writers celebrates the 25th anniversary of readings there. It provides a record of the latest developments in contemporary poetry, with new work by poets including Paul Durcan, Allen Ginsberg, Lee Harwood, Seamus Heaney, J.H. Prynne, lain Crichton Smith, Ken Smith, and others.
