Popshot

Here’s a lovely little publication that just arrived at magCulture. Popshot combines new poetry with commissioned illustration in a small A5 format. This is issue two, themed ‘Them & Us’.

There’s very little else to say, it’s a simple idea done well. The people behind it are seeking to move modern poetry away from it’s fusty image, and their magazine does that, as I hope these images show. Buy a copy on their website.
