Profile[edit]
Adopting the title of an earlier bimonthly publication which ran from 1939 to 1951, Poetry London was founded in 1988[1] as a listings magazine. It now publishes poems from Britain and around the world, some originally written in English and some in English translation.
The current head of the editorial team is André Naffis-Sahely. Previous poetry editors have included Colette Bryce, Pascale Petit, Maurice Riordan, Ahren Warner and Martha Sprackland.
Contributors[edit]
Contributors have included some of the best-known poets writing in the English language. But the magazine operates an open submissions policy, and every issue carries both established and emerging poets.
Each issue also has a cover portrait of one of the poets whose work it features. Past cover poets have included Fred D'Aguiar, Carol Ann Duffy, Philip Gross, Helen Farish and Julia Copus.
