Arc Publications

For over 30 years, Arc has been publishing contemporary poetry from new and established writers from the UK and abroad, specialising in the work of international poets writing in English and the work of overseas poets in translation, with our 'Visible Poets' and 'Arc Translation' series.

More recently, Arc has established a new imprint, Arc Music, for the publication of books about music and musicians.

Arc is also the publisher of a series of pocket-size books by the inimitable Ivor Cutler.

Readings

Arc poets read at festivals and literary venues, and participate in workshops, in the UK and Europe throughout the year, and we ask that they keep us supplied with full details so that we can post them on our Readings page.
