Description
Selected Poetry: Autumn 2025
Edited by David Hanlon & Katie Jenkins
For the second time, The Broken Spine presents its Selected Poetry series in a fully downloadable PDF edition, cementing our digital-first evolution and redefining how independent poetry can be shared and experienced.
Selected Poetry: Autumn 2025, edited by David Hanlon and Katie Jenkins, extends the vision of its celebrated Spring release, bringing together a dazzling range of poetic voices from across the world. This collection moves between the surreal and the fiercely human, the lyrical and the political; each poem hand-selected to challenge, move, and endure.
Among the featured poets are Michael Conley, Forward Prize–shortlisted author of These Are Not My Dreams Anymore; Patrick Wright, whose work has appeared in Agenda and The North; and Paul Voermans, Australian novelist and playwright whose surreal sensibility and wit anchor some of the collection’s most arresting pieces.
The anthology also includes Jill McCabe Johnson, whose eco-poetic work bridges science and intimacy; Heather Wastie, a leading voice in performance poetry and oral history; and Henry Bladon, known for his psychologically acute, image-rich miniatures. Other contributors, such as: Jo Colley, Ray Carey, Susan Butler, Anna Starkey, Michelle Diaz, and Sara Cline, bring distinct perspectives on identity, grief, and resistance, forming a tapestry of global voices in conversation.
Designed by Alan Parry, with cover composition by Alan Parry and Andrew Lloyd, this digital-first publication continues The Broken Spine’s commitment to beauty, accessibility, and editorial integrity. Every page speaks to the editors’ ongoing mission: to champion poetry that is alive to the world and unafraid to speak its truth.
Selected Poetry: Autumn 2025 is a testament to the continued vitality of contemporary poetry, where the local and the universal meet in language both daring and humane.
