Friday Poem – ‘The Bramble King’ by Catherine Fisher

Our Friday Poem this week is ‘Bramble King’, the title poem from Catherine Fisher’s most recent collection. It was great to hear Catherine read from The Bramble King at our Virtual Open Space event with Cardiff Hubs & Libraries last night.

The Bramble King is full of darkly resonant tales, ingenious parables, curiously haunted rooms and palaces, and beautifully observed images of the natural world. A prolific, popular and prize-winning author of fantasy fiction, Catherine began her career as a poet, and Seren published her early volumes: Immrama, The Unexplored Ocean and Altered States. The Bramble King is Fisher’s first collection of poems since 1999.

The Bramble King is available on the Seren website: £9.99
