About Us

Little Hirundine books, poetry and print is primarily the small press of poet, researcher and printer Becca Drake. Other members of the Little Hirundine family include Alex Priestley (poet, assistant editor), and Gilles Madan (illustrator, poet). We believe in the power of print for diversifying voices in poetry and print — give us a press and a little bit of time and see what we can do!

We work with lots of creatives in the city of York, running print poetry workshops and community events. Keep checking back to see what we’ve got on, or get in touch if you’d like to work with us.
