Classic New Zealand Poets in Performance
An anthology of classic poems by twenty-seven New Zealand poets, accompanied by two CDs on which the poets themselves read the poems. The recordings have been selected from the Waiata Recordings Archive (collected in 1974) and the Aotearoa New Zealand Poetry Sound Archive (completed in 2004).
Poetry New Zealand Yearbook 2021
Poetry New Zealand, this country's longest-running poetry magazine, showcases new writing from New Zealand and overseas. This issue, #55, features 182 poems by 129 poets, including Elizabeth Morton, Michele Leggott, essa may ranapiri, Bob Orr, Kiri Piahana-Wong, Jordan Hamel, David Eggleton and Mere Taito, the winning entries in the Poetry New Zealand Prize, essays, and reviews of 25 new poetry books. Compiled in a time of pandemic, these are poems written -- in the words of editor Tracey Slaughter -- when 'the only line to follow was deeper in, darker down, to poetry. The page was the only safe place our breath could go.'

Felt
Couples in last-chance therapy, best friends unfriending, racist trolls trawling the comments section for game — this collection is concerned with the things that make us feel. This felt realm is very much in nature, too.

This outstanding suite of 31 loosely connected poems is by turns powerful, warm, loving, and shocking.
Wild Honey
Highly regarded poet and anthologist Paula Green is the author of this novel and much overdue survey of New Zealand's women poets. At 568 pages, illustrated throughout by Sarah Laing and featuring the work of 195 poets (all of whom have biographies and full bibliographies), this book is a landmark volume and an incredible achievement. Its timing is perfect given the current re-examination of the role of the male gatekeepers of our literature in the 1940s and 1950s, who decided that women's poetry was weak and excluded it from the volumes of poetry that were to become the canon.

An Anthology of Twentieth Century New Zealand Poetry
The third edition of this anthology captures the new air of self-confidence that shines in the work of the current generation of New Zealand poets. The volume devotes additional space to the writings of an exciting group of younger poets and includes--for the first time--the work of Lauris Edmond (who won the Commonwealth Poetry Prize in 1985), Elizabeth Smither, and Brian Turner; it also presents recent poems by such older or established writers as Curnow, Smithyman, Adcock, and Ireland.
