About Metal Gear Sonnets
Metal Gear Sonnets is a sonnet sequence retelling the story of the 1998 videogame Metal Gear Solid. The narrative collection follows secret agent Solid Snake as he infiltrates the Shadow Moses nuclear disposal facility to rescue hostages during a terrorist coup – a mission which quickly goes awry.
Over a single chill Alaskan night, clouds mushroom and unmushroom, snipers crouch in the pixel snow, viruses slip softly from throat to throat, brothers turn to nemeses, and green eyes meet their first caribou in the frozen tundra.
Laurie Eaves’ second collection is out in Feb 26 on Broken Sleep Books.

Biceps
About Biceps
Biceps is a love story, following a relationship from first sparks one frosty bonfire night through day trips to windy Hull and into the stalemate of dysfunctional domesticity. It’s a story about the physical and emotional tidying we go through when we fall out of love. It’s a story that explores the small ways we learn to understand ourselves better as a result of our relationships and gain the strength to start rebuilding in the face of personal loss.
Laurie Eaves' debut poetry collection, Biceps includes 44 poems and came out on Burning Eye Books 15th March 2020.
“This collection celebrates life’s little details and what it is to be human. I could read it again and again.”
