The Poetry Book Society’s quarterly Bulletin magazine is the place to discover the very best new poetry from across the globe. Founded by T.S. Eliot in 1953 to share the joy of poetry, the PBS Bulletin is packed full of poems from established and emerging poets alongside unique insights into their poetic practice, extensive reviews and comprehensive listings of all the latest poetry releases.

Each edition features a diverse range of issue-driven and innovative, world-class poetry, hand-picked by our expert poet-selectors: Jo Clement, Roy McFarlane, Nina Mingya Powles and Arji Manuelpillai. Past contributors include familiar names such Jorie Graham, Hannah Lowe, Ilya Kaminsky and Raymond Antrobus and emerging poetic talents such as Safiya Kamaria Kinshasa. It's the definitive guide to contemporary poetry for academics and students alike.

Digital subscribers will have unique access to the PBS archive dating back to 2017, as well each new issue hot off the press. The PBS Bulletin archive is perfect for those researching contemporary poetry. It provides a historic snap-shot of the contemporary poetry scene with unique insights from leading poets of the time. For details on campus-wide digital subscriptions for institutions, please email support@exacteditions.com.
