For more than 70 years the Tower Poetry Society has been publishing some of the finest new English-language poetry. Tower Poetry embraces a wide variety of styles – from sonnets in the classical form to villanelles to entertaining and thought-provoking free verse.
The book is published twice a year (Winter and Summer editions), so a one-year subscription buys two books, delivered to your door or to the person(s) for whom you purchase a gift subscription(s).
Among regular contributors to Tower Poetry are the well-known and respected Canadian writers James Deahl, I. B. (Bunny) Iskov and K. V. Skene.
Although the majority of poems are written by poets who live in Canada, there are often poems from different parts of the world. Past issues have included poets from Pakistan, Poland, and Serbia. The Summer 2024 edition (Volume 73, Number 1) includes poets from Australia and Sri Lanka, as well as Colorado, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Texas, U.S.A.
