Laureate's Choice
The Laureate’s Choice publications have been produced in collaboration with 2009-2019 Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy, to discover and showcase exciting new voices in poetry.
A series of five sets of four new poets were selected by the Laureate, and Smith|Doorstop published a pamphlet from each poet.
In May 2019 The Poetry Business published The Laureate’s Choice Anthology to mark the culmination of Carol Ann Duffy’s decade long tenure as Poet Laureate. The anthology includes a selection of the best poems across the series, showcasing the voices that Carol Ann has discovered and celebrated.
