This collection, compiled by Poetry Foundation staff, highlights and reflects on Poetry magazine’s 110-year history and celebrates our hopes for the future. Content from the 2022-2023 anniversary year includes portfolios from Poetry magazine that celebrate the work of pivotal, largely under-recognized, poets and contributors, including Margaret Danner; poem samplers celebrating the work of the 2022 Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize winners; and special reflections on the archive and the work of magazine founding editor Harriet Monroe.
