Publications Out now from Aquifer Books is Path by Chris Torrance. ‘Path’ presents Chris Torrance’s own compilation of his later work, finalised in 2017. The characteristically varied and wide-ranging poems in this major new collection can be read as continuations of the Magic Door sequence, crowning 50 years of Torrance’s writing life in rural Wales. ‘The character humanises the landscape, and the landscape gives the character his larger dimension: so that, idiosyncratic and fallible as he is, Torrance’s persona, his consciousness, can stand for each for each of us: reaching into the real contexts of being human with an energy and grasp that proffer them to his reader, to share. Torrance enlarges and deepens the world for us.’ — John Freeman (Poetry Wales) Published April 2026 | £13With p&p: UK £16; Europe £21; USA & Canada £28; Rest of the World £27ISBN 978-1-0684861-3-5 Chris Torrance, Selected Early Poems is available from Shearsman Press.
