All submissions are read by the editorial team, but due to the huge volume of submissions, we cannot offer individual criticism for submissions.
We are accepting submissions for Poetry Ireland Review Issue 149, edited by Colm Tóibín from Friday, 1st of May.
Colm Tóibín is the author of 11 novels, including The Master and Brooklyn, and three collections of stories, including most recently The News from Dublin. Vinegar Hill, his first poetry collection, was published in 2022 and his monograph on the poet Elizabeth Bishop in 2015. In 2021, he was awarded the David Cohen Prize for Literature. He is Irene and Sidney B. Silverman Professor of the Humanities at Columbia University.
"I love when Poetry Ireland Review arrives in the post. The selection of poems is eclectic and fascinating, with a mixture of well-known poets and new voices. The reviews are sharp and incisive. Poetry Ireland Review is a publication I would not be without. It is an honour and a big responsibility to oversee a new edition of the magazine."
Guidelines for Submitting to Poetry Ireland Review
We have two methods of submission available for Poetry Ireland Review, via Duosuma or post only.
Submissions will be accepted via Duosuma during the submissions windows in May and June. Each poet may submit up to 4 poems each. Please do not submit multiple times.
Postal entries will be accepted up to Tuesday 30th June. Any postal submissions post stamped after this date will not be accepted.
Please note that it may take up to 5 months from the time of your submission until you receive the editor's decision, though we'll do our best to notify all poets as soon as we possibly can.
Please ensure you read through the guidelines on our Duosuma landing page before sending your work either by post or the platform. Also, ensure you have thoroughly checked and are happy with your poems before submitting them. Please note that once submitted, work cannot be altered or amended in any way.
All poems (and cover letter, should you decide to include one, outlining previous publications or other relevant information) must be included in a single document. Please do not make a separate submission for each poem.
Should you have a query concerning your submission, you're welcome to email pir@poetryireland.ie.
