Black/Asian poets - why so few?

Friday 26th May 2006 3:45 pm

Why have so few new Black and Asian poets been published in the UK in the past 10 years and why is poetry publishing so far behind the amazingly diverse world of fiction? After a year of researching poets and publishers throughout the UK, Free Verse have produced a final report which looks at the results, talks to a range of poets and publishers, and offers some practical advice to both poets and publishers on how they can make a difference.
Visit http://www.spreadtheword.org.uk/freeverse/index.php?id=48 for more information or to read the report.
