VERVE POETRY BOOK SHOP
Discover VERVE Poetry Bookshop: Your Online Destination for Contemporary Poetry
VERVE Poetry Bookshop started as part of our vibrant Poetry Festival in Birmingham. Since our early days at Waterstones, we've been dedicated to bringing contemporary poetry to life through carefully curated collections.
Our festival bookshop has become a must-visit for poetry enthusiasts, featuring a wide selection of books from both visiting poets and the broader world of contemporary poetry.
Our shelves boast titles from renowned poets like Imtiaz Dharker, Liz Berry, Kim Addonizio, Frank O'Hara, and many others.
Whether you’re looking for emerging voices or classic poetry collections, our selection has something for everyone.
Recognising the need to make our poetry book shop available year-round, we launched the VERVE Poetry Bookshop online. Here, you'll find a curated selection of the best in contemporary poetry, essential "How To Write Poetry" guides, and a unique assortment of imported favourites. Our collection also honours the great poets of the past who have shaped modern poetry.
