Welcome to Rack Press Poetry

Rack Press Poetry is an award-winning Welsh poetry pamphlet press founded in 2005. 

After nearly twenty years we are currently having a short breather from pamphlets and are closed to submissions but we recently launched a new series of “broadsides” by poets engaging with contemporary issues and the first two can already be ordered.

If you would like to order pamphlets from our back list every title prior to 2024 is priced at £3 (post free) and if you would like one just choose from the list below 

then open the order window at the top left of the blog page and tell us which title (s) you want. 

Any problems simply email us directly rackpresspoetry@btinternet.com and we’ll fix it.
