Inaugural Crashaw Prize Winners

December 20th, 2008

Six debut poets are to have their first collections of poetry published around the world after winning the inaugural Crashaw prize, due to be awarded annually by the independent poetry press Salt Publishing (UK).

The winners — Tom Chivers, Abi Curtis and Ian Pindar from the UK, Ailbhe Darcy from Ireland and Jamey Dunham and Jared Stanley from the US — will all be published next June in the UK, Australia and the US by Salt, which launched the prize in July, naming it after 17th century metaphysical poet Richard Crashaw.
