The first issue of the Poetry Review under new editors David Herd and Robert
Potts is out (did I, er-hem, mention before that I'm currently the Chair of
the Poetry Society? - interest duly declared). The magazine is previewed at
the Poetry Society's website at http://www.poetrysociety.org.uk/ , where
other details are also available, and includes:


Andrew Duncan on the Tuma anthology (this essay is also up on the site)

An essay by Ian Samson on "Happiness", and other essays on Elizabeth Bishop
and Edwin Morgan

New Work by John Tranter, John Ashbery, Clive Wilmer, Geoffrey Hill, and
Alison Brackenbury and others

Reviews which include Catriona O'Reilly on Kathleen Jamie, David Kennedy on
Drew Milne, Jeremy Noel-Tod on J. H. Prynne, and others, and a questionnaire
feature, one of whose respondents is Michael Haslam.

The Poetry Society is also hosting a reading by John Tranter and Denise
Riley, at the Poetry Studio in Betterton Street, London on August 15. Again
details at that site.
