Message text written by R I Caddel
"The efforts to find regugee housing for even part of
Oxford's list will impact on poetry publishing in the UK, reducing the
numbers of "new" authors printed elsewhere in the chain, and - obviously -
reducing the number of outlets. Authors particularly "at risk" will, as
usual, be the ones perceived as a little to one side of the "mainstream"
in any sense. Not a good thing, however remote we may feel from it."

Hmmm. I doubt that my chances of being published by Faber & Faber are
diminished one jot by OUP's poetry list demise. The question isn't one of
lack of capacity.
