The packed issue #57 features over 150 new poems - including by this year's featured poet, Tyla Bidois - and essays and reviews of new poetry collections by some of this country's best-known poets and literary critics. Poems by the winners of the Poetry New Zealand Yearbook Student Poetry Competition are among the line-up.
