Steve Spence follows his Forward Prize-shortlisted debut with Limits of Control, a fizzing, wit-laden investigation of contemporary society in prose poetry.

These poems are likeable, funny and intelligent, their satire exact for these times.
Michael Mackmin, The Rialto (on A Curious Shipwreck)

Steve Spence lives in Plymouth and co-organises the live poetry group The Language Club. His reviews and poetry have appeared in Great Works, Shearsman, Stride, Tears in the Fence, Tenth Muse and The Rialto. He was assistant editor of Terrible Work magazine and in 2007 completed an MA in Creative Writing at the University of Plymouth. His debut, A Curious Shipwreck (Shearsman, 2010), was shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection.
