Books by Agnes Meadows

Back to Babylon, the seventh collection from London-based poet and writer, Agnes Meadows, is based on her visits to Iraq for the Babylon International Festival of Arts & Culture in 2012, 2014 and 2016, and the things she saw there. As well as poetry, Back to Babylon includes the Blog she wrote during her 2012 visit. From convivial jasmine-scented nights in the old city of Babil to the horror and grief at Al-Mawahil with its mass grave of 13,000 disappeared Iraqis, her writing takes the reader ever closer to life in this troubled region.

At Damascus Gate on Good Friday is a selection of poems exploring life in the Gaza strip, where the author lived for a period.

A collection of poetry that is dedicated to the late Brinsley Sheridan, the author's long-time friend and fellow poet. It features poems on themes of history, memory, everyday beauty and struggle. It explores the nature of friendship and the ingredients of endurance, joy and survival.

Agnes Meadows' reputation as an International performance poet has made her a firm favourite at festivals all over the world, including the Austin International Poetry Festival, Mediterranean Poetry Festival, and Palestinian PEN's International Poetry Festival. Woman is a selection of new poems fused with work from; her two previous books You and Me and Quantum Love; and her CDs Agnes Meadows and Blues Shakin' My Heels.
