After a tumultuous year which saw recognition for our authors by prestigious literary awards and the Press on the London shortlist for the British Book Awards Small Publisher of the Year, followed by the upheaval and uncertainty that have faced us all over the last few months, we’re excited to look ahead to our 2021 publishing programme.
Joelle Taylor will be commencing her one-year tenure as Editor and we’re delighted to announce the five poets who will form her all-women 2021 list. Joelle says:
I want to use my tenure as editor to elevate new voices, unearth buried narratives, look at new ways of conjuring form, of story, and exploring how a community of women can help one another develop as writers and as thinkers. I am delighted to be developing books with 5 poets whose collective work addresses a range of political and personal issues, centring the female experience in the 21st century.
We’ll be publishing books from Lisa Luxx, Leung Rachel Ka Yin, Safiya Kamaria Kinshasa, Alice Frecknall and Sarah Fletcher. Check out the shiny brochure above to read a little more about each of them.
It’s an honour to publish these poets and we can’t wait to bring you their work.
