Bad Press


Bad Press is a London and Cambridge-based publisher of poetry, writings and essays - founded in 2003 by Marianne Morris. Its current editorial board comprises Marianne Morris, Jow Lindsay and Jonathan Stevenson.

Bad Press writers use new performance practices, digital technology and networking with a playfulness in adopting conservative, pre-British Poetry Revival registers to expand the writer's modernist toolkit.

Famous quotes containing the words bad and/or press:

    Jail sentences have many functions, but one is surely to send a message about what our society abhors and what it values. This week, the equation was twofold: female infidelity twice as bad as male abuse, the life of a woman half as valuable as that of a man. The killing of the woman taken in adultery has a long history and survives today in many cultures. One of those is our own.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    Our most tragic error may have been our inability to establish a rapport and a confidence with the press and television—with the communication media. I don’t think the press has understood me.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
