Editorial Focus
BOA Editions publishes four series of books. The American Poets Continuum Series is for previously published poets. The Lannan Translation Series publishes volumes from poets around the world, including writers from Korea, Dominican Republic, Albania, Israel, and Syria. The New Poets of America series publishes first time poets, who are also the winners of the annual Poulin Poetry Prize. The American Reader Series is BOA's newest series. Our strongest interest is in short story collections, but through this series we have also published memoirs and other prose about poetry.
