We've partnered with Len Pennie and her publisher Canongate Books to offer a Portobello Bookshop Edition of her new poetry collection poyums annaw. This edition is exclusive to The Portobello Bookshop and limited. It features a beautiful electric blue cover.

There isn't a timescale for how you should heal
Your bad days are valid, your heartache is real
But so is the day that your smile will return
That fire within you continues to burn
You will overcome this and continue to thrive
You are here, you are loved, you are whole, you're alive.

A formidable follow up to her award-winning debut poetry collection, Len Pennie's poyums annaw is just like her: defiant, angry and trailblazing. These poems are a call to arms, confronting ideas of patriarchy, gender-based violence and societal injustice with equal parts tenderness, quick-wit and righteous fury.Poyums Annaw firmly cements Len as a defining voice in contemporary Scots poetry.
