Description
The Poetry Book Society was founded by T.S. Eliot to share the joy of poetry. It's a unique poetry book club and every quarter our expert selectors choose the very best new books to deliver to our members across the globe. Our lively quarterly magazine is packed full of sneak preview poems from all the selected poets, alongside exclusive interviews, insightful reviews by the Ledbury Critics and extensive listings of every book and pamphlet published this quarter. The Winter 2022 Bulletin magazine is as thought-provoking as ever with poems and commentaries from emerging and established poets. The PBS Winter Choice Safiya Kamaria Kinshasa re-examines the slave trade and interprets the voice of her Barbadian ancestors through innovative dance notation and movement across the page. Nina Mingya Powles reviews the "gorgeously sticky" Pamphlet Choice Mother of Flip Flops by Mukahang Limbu who takes us from Cowley Road, Oxford, to Nepal. The Translation Choice Laura Doyle Pean delves into mental health in Yo-Yo Heart (87 Press) translated by Stuart Bell. A E Stallings takes us back to ancient Greece via modern motherhood. Arji Manuelpillai confronts Sri Lanka's traumatic past in Improvised Explosive Device (Penned in the Margins) and Selina Nwulu examines Black British experience, migration and grief in her formidable debut A Little Resurrection (Bloomsbury). Fran Lock channels "queer working class rage" in her astonishing White/Other (87 Press) and Philip Gross takes us to a celestial plane with The Thirteenth Angel (Bloodaxe).
