I’m a bit slow on this one, others having blogged it already, but there’s free shipping on all UK orders until Christmas from Salt’s online shop! Not only will it make your present buying easier, but you’ll make Chris, Jen and the rest of the redoubtable Salt team — not to mention the authors — very happy.

I’m not slow on this one, however: if you’re after a change from the physical books or are particularly keen on hearing your poetry as well as reading it on the page, keep an eye on the brand new Salt Audio Books site. There are only a couple of titles on it so far, but it promises to be a fantastic resource as it grows.
