Haunting the Black Air by Anthony Joseph; Selected Poems by Leontia Flynn; Sparrow on the Rooftop by Rachel Long; You Must Live: New Poetry from Palestine, edited by Jorie Graham; Melete by Jennifer Lee Tsai; Somebody Should Have Pressed Record by Galia Admoni Haunting the Black Air by Anthony Joseph (Bloomsbury, ยฃ12.99) Josephโs follow-up to the TS Eliot prize-winning Sonnets for Albert sees his poetic approach become more radical. He pays homage to avant garde writers such as Will Alexander and Nathaniel Mackey, while exploring โNostalgia, mostly grief, / a haunting sound โ / the frequency of some / magnetic feeling.โ That makes for challenging syntax on first reading the poems. Persist, and Josephโs unabashed lyricism shines through, finding beauty on dancefloors, city streets and in Trinidadian landscapes: โthe way music fills the room, how we embrace until / we become flare bright, light as the white refraction / of the sun upon the summit of hills.โ Selected Poems by Leontia Flynn (Carcanet, ยฃ14.99) She was a Next Generation poet and Forward prize winner; itโs a shock to remember that Flynn has been publishing for more than 20 years, so fresh do her poems remain. This assembly is a glorious reintroduction to her mordant wit, imaginative image-making and unerring ability to puncture pretension. Letter to Friends from 2011 is a brilliant, Auden-esque dissection of the early 21st century, worth a library of political analyses: โdaily threats brought to our Way of Life / by man-made imminent apocalypse / though neither really outweighs private griefโ. There are pleasures on every page. Continue reading...
Howells puts in a strong turn as Henry Paget, a Victorian marquess who blows his inheritance on hosting wild parties and staging gender-defying theatrical performances Playing the shy Colin in Russell T Daviesโs 2021 TV drama Itโs a Sin, Callum Scott Howells had to be the humble caterpillar compared to Olly Alexanderโs extravagant butterfly. But now Howells gets an upgrade to full butterfly status in this high-spirited and good-humoured drama from screenwriter Lisa Baker and director Celyn Jones, reclaiming a forgotten chapter in queer Victorian history. With a moustache resembling that of Proust, Howells amusingly plays the flamboyant aristocrat Henry Paget, 5th Marquess of Anglesey, a delicate consumptive and aesthete who, in the late 19th century, blew his vast inheritance on colossal private theatricals, wild parties and jaw-dropping performances in which he would appear in gender-challenging costumes, including a diaphanous veil he wore as a โbutterfly dancerโ. He caused scandal with his behaviour and apparently unconsummated marriage to first cousin Lily (Ruby Stokes), whose attitude to him here is perhaps more affectionate and tolerant than it was in real life.

Zvika Gregory Portnoy and Zuzanna Solakiewiczโs documentary lays bare the problems faced by refugees and the compassion of good samaritans It all begins with a knock. In a small Polish town on the border with Belarus, Maciek and his family have taken in 27-year-old Alhyder, a Syrian refugee seeking shelter from the freezing weather and police patrols. Since 2021, the area has become increasingly militarised after Vladimir Putin and Alexander Lukashenko, in a purely political move, offered up the Belarussian border as a new migration route into the EU. In response, the Polish government created a 3-km zone where refugees and migrants are seized and deported back to Belarus. With humanitarian organisations also banned from the area, asylum seekers are now pawns in a political war game, with their lives continuously in danger. Laying bare the risks faced by both Maciek and Alhyder, Zvika Gregory Portnoy and Zuzanna Solakiewiczโs documentary intimately trails its subjects. Most of their conversations unfold in tense closeups, as Alhyder struggles to contact his group of fellow refugees; his host meanwhile keeps watch for the constant military presence in the neighbourhood. The film expands to take in other forms of resistance, such as a network of good samaritans who provide food, warm clothes and translation services for those hiding out in the forests. These acts of compassion shine a heartwarming light against the darkness of a humanitarian crisis. Continue reading...
