Aaron Kent is a working-class writer and award-winning publisher from Cornwall, now living in Wales. He runs the Michael Marks Publishing Award winning press Broken Sleep Books, and his debut poetry collection, ANGELS THE SIZE OF HOUSES, is forthcoming from Shearsman. Aaron was awarded the Awen medal from the Bards of Cornwall for his poetry pamphlet THE LAST HUNDRED. Gillian Clarke said, of his poetry, "Every poem is a dizzy word-dazzle, a dance of images, expressing a real life of work, babies, love and loss." Andrew McMillan called it "Poetry that vibrates on its own frequency, and invites the reader into its own surreal soundscapes." JH Prynne called his work "Unicorn Flavoured" and Vahni Capildeo said "Aaron Kent's pages made me experience, for the first time ever in my reading, the spaces between words as rips in fabric that let skin show through in its bruised and tender luminosity".
