Editor Matthew Hollis introduces a rich array of rising poetry stars. As part of the Faber New Poets programme, in association with Arts Council England, talent-scouted young writers Fiona Benson, Heather Phillipson, Toby Martinez de las Rivas and Jack Underwood are launching their hot-off-the-press pamphlets. They are joined by Wordsworth Trust Poet in Residence Emma Jones, winner of Australia’s prestigious Newcastle Poetry Prize, who will be reading from her new collection The Striped World.
