Poetry Wales

Charting 40 years of evolving tastes, fashions, cultures, and politics, this anthology spotlights the original mission of "Poetry Wales" magazine: to provide a forum for Welsh writing in English. Today the magazine is a thoroughly internationalist journal, publishing poets from Heaney to Mapanje and translating works from around the world. Nevertheless, in the four decades of its existence, it has kept a sharp eye out for Welsh poets writing with invention, passion, and rigor--and all reflecting, in both major and minor keys, the life of their homeland.
