Praise for Poetry New Zealand Yearbook
‘The new Poetry New Zealand Yearbook is, as usual, a poetic smorgasbord. First, a tranche of impressive work by the featured poet, Aimee-Jane Anderson-O’Connor. Next, around 250 pages of poems by poets familiar and less familiar. Then, two extended personal-literary essays. Lastly, 20 substantial reviews of recent collections . . . I’ll be carrying this book around with me for quite a while.’ — Harry Ricketts, kete
‘This big book is a generous, great sampler. . . . Poetry New Zealand Yearbook 2020 is something epic, no standing still here.’ — Hamesh Wyatt, Otago Daily Times
‘I look forward to The Poetry New Zealand Yearbook each year, because it’s so wonderfully filled with all things poetry. It’s also a great way to see the current landscape of New Zealand poetry, with familiar names making an appearance alongside newer poets. . . . As well as being an important space for the work of New Zealand poets, this new installment will inspire writers to continue writing and to introduce new methods in their craft.’ — Emma Shi, The Reader
‘It’s all too easy to look around ... and despair at the state of the world and the taste of the people in it. But then the Poetry Yearbook turns up again, to show there is still room for sophistication and quality at a reasonable price.’ — Paul Little, North & South
