Mimi Khalvati | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

This year marks the tenth anniversary of The Poetry School. "I Am Twenty People!" celebrates this occasion, and is the third anthology of an ongoing series from Enitharmon Press that aims to bring the work of new poets to a wider readership. At the time of acceptance, none of the poets included in "I Am Twenty People!" had published a full-length volume, although some now have books forthcoming. The majority of contributors to the first anthology went on to publish collections. Contributors to both previous anthologies number among their successes a shortlisting for the T S Eliot Prize, the Forward Prize for Best First Collection, the Forward Prize for Best Poem, the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize, the Jerwood/Aldeburgh Prize for Best First Collection, New Writing Ventures Awards, the Poetry Society's Hamish Canham Prize and Poetry Book Society Recommendations.
