Sealey Challenge: Abigail Parry recommends Breaking a Mare

It's August, which means the #SealeyChallenge is underway! To help you on your journey to read a book every day this month, The Poetry Society has gotten in touch with poets we've recently worked with for some recommendations.

Today's recommendation comes from Abigail Parry, who judged the 2024 Geoffrey Dearmer Prize and wrote a piece about the winning poet, Sasha Debevec-McKenney, for the latest issue of The Poetry Review (115:2). To get your hands on a copy, visit the link in our bio.

Abigail's pick is Christina Thatcher's Breaking a Mare (Parthian). Thank you, Abigail
