Britannic Mths

In prose and painting Steven O'Brien and Joe Machine have delved into the mythic matter of Britain, and Ireland. They have re-cast the ancient stories of these islands for fresh ears and eyes. Raw, poetic,eerie, vivid and earthy - these dialogues with the uncanny, the divine, and the struggles of the human spirit show us that our myths are as important as ever.

Steven O'Brien is a widely widely published peot, editior of The London Magazine, and lectures at the University of Portsmouth, where he leads the MA in Creative Writing. He is also Visiting Fellow of Creative Writing at University College Chichester.

Joe Machine is an artist, poet and writer.
