About

Poetry International is world class literary magazine based on the campus of San Diego State University which caters to an international community of poets. We’ve published a wide range of voices including Robert Bly, Kim Addonizio, Billy Collins, Wanda Coleman, Seamus Heaney, Edward Hirsch, Yusef Komunyakaa, and Derek Walcott, among many others. Our featured translation sections have brought attention to under represented poets from Cuba, Vietnam, Iraq, and a host of other countries. You can find out more about all of that at the PI website. Here, at the blog, our crack editorial staff of farflung poetry correspondents regularly tackles a broad array of relevant issues with tenacity and immediacy.
