  ..These are just a few of the sixty-four mouth watering poems by James Crowden, Lawrence Sail, Alan Peacock & Elisabeth Rowe.

Open - Mouthed is a true feast for the senses, an a la carte menu of poems, al fresco, al dente, succulent morsels plucked from the hedgerows and kitchens both at home and abroad. Four very different voices all connected in some way with the Westcountry, Dartington and Devon. Here you can graze to your heart's content, sample the hors d'oeuvre, short spicy little numbers, the succulent main course, long languorous poems for summer, just desserts, the fruit, the wine, the cider, the orchards, a real celebration of food and poetry folded into one spine, one book.
