      Flood The World With Beauty

      Nov 1, 2019

      A big literary conference is probably not the best place for a poet dealing with a mental breakdown. But there I was at AWP, skittishly perusing tables at the book fair, under the garish lights of the Minneapolis Convention Center. For two years, par

      LETTER FROM THE PBS

      Welcome to the Spring 2022 Bulletin. We at the Poetry Book Society are looking forward to getting out in the world and hope to see many of our readers, poets and contributors over the course of the year. We can be found mainly in the north this spring and hope to see you at StAnza poetry festival in St Andrews on the 13th March for readings from Emily Berry, Will Alexander and Fiona Benson, or at our local Newcastle Poetry Festival in May. Wherever you are, we hope you can celebrate poetry this year and we really hope you enjoy this season’s selections.

      Emily Berry is the Spring Choice with the outstanding Unexhausted Time, described by selector Anthony Anaxagorou, as majestic as it is impressive. The scope of the further recommendations and selections is immense, from the Tang dynasty to Greek myth, African post-colonial empowerment, anxiety of parenthood, notions of family, the body; it is a brilliant array of poetry and subject matter. The selector’s and poet’s commentary make for intriguing reading, I really hope they inspire you to either try a new poet’s work or invest in the latest from one already known to you.

      We’re delighted to announce the winners of our Metro Poetry Prize too, Nicola Sealey and D.A. Prince. The prize was run in partnership with Nexus and judged by Alice at the PBS and the poet Degna
