Poetry New Zealand
Poetry New Zealand, generally known as Poetry NZ, began in 1951 with the publication of Louis Johnson's Poetry New Zealand Yearbook. It is interested in new and younger writers trying to have their work recognized. It also contains reviews and articles concerning poetry in New Zealand and elsewhere.
The magazine's policy is to support poetry and poets both in New Zealand and overseas. Each issue features 15 to 20 pages of poetry from a developing or established poet in order to draw attention to that poet's work. The rest of the issue is comprised of a selection of poetry from New Zealand and abroad, as well as essays, reviews and general criticism.
