Pink edition - Alternative Poetry Books

The Alternative Poetry Books - Pink edition - available as paperback & as an ebook - as a Kindle it was simultaneously in the Amazon best selling top ten in the UK and US in Dec 2011 and gained international acclaim.

Firmly celebrating the feminine side of human nature; fictional folk such as the not-so cross cross-dresser, a middle-aged mother with a secret life as a European Soccer Cup goalkeeper and a Fairy Godmother who decides it's her turn for some 'me' time, rub shoulders in this edition with real-life amazing people.

People like Claire Robertson the Dorchester entrepreneur, Lionheart and Lights Out - Swansea cage fighters in dresses who stood up to a thug and won the hearts of a nation, and the remarkable Elena Desserich only 5 years old from Wyoming who made a lasting impression on so many people in her tragically short life.

The world is full of beauty, love and fun shining through despite sadness and this book aims to celebrate this triumph of humanity.

About the author

I am a poet by habit and a writer by necessity. I am also commissioning editor for Endaxi Press and its Prosochi imprint.

Endaxi Press was initially set up in 2009 as a vehicle to produce my poetry books. As we learned the skills and crafts necessary we broadened that remit to include a very select number of authors in our publishing 'stable.'

Endaxi may be small - but we do things properly and to a very high standard.

My own poetry books can be seen as the grit which stimulated the oyster to produce the pearl. :)

The Rebecca Review " 5 - stars on Amazon.com - "Michele Brenton's books are long enough to be amusing and short enough to be refreshing. This "Pink" book will appeal to your feminine side. It starts off with a humorous naughty poem about a husband who likes to dress up a bit. Then there are some poems with clever twists of words and a few poems made me snicker or laugh out loud. Some of the topics include Cinderella, kite flying, business, beauty routines, suicide, favorite foods, parenting, love, Paddington Bear, why we should be kind to our mothers, Christmas and cures for insomnia. Michele Brenton seems to look on the bright side and sees beauty in the world. This book is even funnier than her Yellow book.
