POETRY BOOK SOCIETY
LAUNCHES 'BACK IN PRINT'
 |
The Poetry Book Society's Back in Print initiative was an exciting new plan to breathe life into contemporary poetry.
It is a well known fact that many distinguished
poetry collections are sadly no longer available.
As it is simply uneconomic to reprint them, many
fall out of print and disappear from bookshops.
In order to address this, the Poetry Book Society
asked its members for suggestions of significant
collections from recent years which they felt
deserved to be brought back to life. The PBS then
worked with Poetry Review magazine to select six
key titles. The books have now been republished
as the 'Back in Print' list.
Showcasing a range of work and variety of styles
from the last four decades, the 'Back in Print'
titles afford a wonderful opportunity for readers
to rediscover or to enjoy for the first time the
works of some of our greatest poets that have
been out of print for some years.
The 'Back in Print' titles are:
Airy
Hall
by Fred D'Aguair
Sibyls and Others by Ruth Fainlight
The Triumph of Love by Geoffrey
Hill
Spilt Milk by Sarah Maguire
The Cost of Seriousness by Peter
Porter
Adventures with my Horse by Penelope
Shuttle
