Welcome to the 2013 Longlist Page!
Our 2013 Longlist e-Anthology, published by Véhicule Press under its poetry imprint Signal Editions, is now available for free download!
Please click here to view the anthology in your browser, or right-click and save it to your computer to download a copy. This will make it easier to read those poems that are set in landscape and therefore appear “sideways.” Opening with Adobe Acrobat allows you to right those pages. Of course, tablets don’t have this problem!
We have decided to make the Longlist Anthology available for free. It is a unique artifact, representing the various interests of poets from around the world in the year 2013, not broken up by national or geographical boundaries like most anthologies. We hope you will download, read and find great pleasure in it.
Since our aim is to be fully community-funded and independent, please consider making a donation to our not-for-profit, grassroots organization. Even small donations can make a huge difference if they are made by many people.

Here’s the 2013 Longlist!
As is always the case, the final selections were difficult for our editors to make. So we produced a long list to call attention to more poems than just the final 50 or so that will be published in our 2013 Global Poetry Anthology.
