Australian Poetry, as a supporter of this significant anthology by editors Saba Vasefi, Melinda Smith and Yvette Holt, wishes the volume and its contributors the most profound success in its welcome into the world, its reading, and its impact and dissemination. Aside from the digital launch, Borderless and AP have some co-presented literary events linked to the book underway, and we will update as festival and other event programs are off embargoes. These events, where AP is in formal partnership, are funded generously by the Cultural Fund.
