5 Islands Press Welcomes Eight New Poets


We are delighted to announce that, after a long and difficult selection process, we are now able to welcome these eight accomplished poets in our 2025 publication program.  They will join Helen Jarvis, whose book The Kindness of Water, will be published in February 2025.


We will provide more details about each of these poets and their impressive manuscripts over the coming weeks.  For now, we simply want to thank them publicly for entrusting their work to us.


We would also like to thank the other 130+ people who responded to our call for submissions.  The quality of the poems that we received was outstanding.  We wish we had the capacity to publish more of their manuscripts.  But we will, at least, be able to provide a sample of the work of many of them in our forthcoming anthology, Oystercatcher One.
