Sunshine is the new collection from Next Generation Poet Melissa Lee-Houghton. A writer of startling confession, her poems inhabit the lonely hotel rooms, psych wards and deserted lanes of austerity Britain.

'Beautiful Girls' is not a book for the faint-hearted. The reader has been invited to a sleepover at the asylum, a night in which five-year-old girls drift alone through the wards, where the mentally unstable do sit-ups when nobody is watching and where heaven is a place between 'the sky and the planets' reserved for those with personality disorders. The book will be a home-from-home for sufferers and a journey through a terrible night for those who've been fortunate enough to take the non-scenic route in life.
