Out of a stellar shortlist of poems, we are glad to announce that Kayla Czaga’s “Harvest Moon Lantern Festival” has won Arc Poetry Magazine’s 2017 Poem of the Year contest, and Blair Trewartha’s “Breach” has been named the Honourable Mention. After a close vote, Phillip Crymble’s “Biography of a Story” came out on top as the Readers’ Choice. Arc would also like to congratulate the rest of the poets on the shortlist.

In This Issue

This summer issue of Arc Poetry Magazine also contains illuminating poems from Jennifer Film, Cassidy McFadzean, and Heather Cadsby, as well as:

  • Rhonda Douglas in conversation with the emerging Ottawa poet Karen Massey;
