Covered with Liberty London Fabric, 2023's edition is a handsome A5 hardback diary printed in colour throughout with a ribbon bookmark and an elastic closure. A week to a view diary containing a new selection every year of forty three poems and nine illustrations from the Faber Archive.
The Faber poetry list, originally founded in the 1920s, was shaped by the taste of T.S. Eliot, who was its guiding light for nearly forty years. Each passing decade has seen the list grow with the addition of poets who are arguably the finest of their generation. The Liberty Faber Poetry Diary is a celebration of this remarkable Faber list.
