Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Most of our books are translations of contemporary poets from all over the world in addition to a shorter list of English speaking poets. Those we've published in a bilingual format are poets such as Alberto Blanco (Mexico), José-Flore Tappy (Switzerland), Eunice Odio (Costa Rica), Hai Zi (China), Salvador Novo (Mexico), Nicomedes Suaréz-Araúz (Bolivia), Kristiina Ehin (Estonia), Jacques Dupin (France), Nora Iuga (Romania), Christine Lavant (Austria), Karl Krolow (Germany), Pierre Voélin (Switzerland), Ana Minga (Ecuador), Franca Mancinelli (Italy), André du Bouchet (France), Salgado Maranhão (Brazil), Riad Saleh Hussein (Syria). After our last issue (Autumn/2020) we have continued as a press which concentrates on publishing books of poetry in translation from any language into English.
