Hearing Eye is a small independent press established in 1987. One of our distinctive features is that we have kept all our books in print, a policy now abandoned by most publishing houses. We also work very closely with the individual authors on both the production and the presentation of their work.
In recent years, Hearing Eye Pamphlets, Songs from the Flats by Anna Robinson and The Beating of Wings by Linda Black have been selected as Poetry Book SocietyPamphlet recommendations.
The Torriano Meeting House in north London is home to a thousand poetry readings. It is celebrating twenty-five years of survival by putting three visual artists in residence.
Mindful of ever-impending threats to funding, Zuzana Piponi is preparing to cut the Hearing Eye stock to pieces. She will "make interventions with books and pamphlets...using scalpels, scissors and glue to reconfigure the form of words into subtle objects". Another artist, Ruth Breckell, "will use knitting and felting techniques to respond to the poetry of John Rety", co-founder of Torriano. "As poets weave words, so Ruth will knit and enmesh them." The third resident, Natasha Gomperts promises only to draw portraits of poets!
