The prestigious and highly anticipated annual anthology of the best poetry in English from the shortlist of the 2026 Griffin Poetry Prize.
Each year, the best books of poetry published in English are honoured with the Griffin Poetry Prize, one of the world’s most prestigious and richest literary awards. Since 2001, this annual prize has tremendously spurred interest in and recognition of poetry, focusing worldwide attention on the formidable talent of poets writing in English and works in translation. Annually, The Griffin Poetry Prize Anthology features the work of the extraordinary poets shortlisted for the awards and introduces us to some of the finest poems in their collections.
LUKE HATHAWAY is a trans and queer poet, lyricist/librettist, and theatre-maker whose work has been celebrated as “deftly conversant” with its sources in tradition; and, at the same time, as superbly musical. He is the author of four books of poems as well as numerous chapbook and broadside publications, and the co-creator of many works for stage—including, most recently, the immersive opera Eurydice Fragments (re:naissance opera, 2024). Hathaway frequently works with singer-scholar Daniel Cabena as part of the ensemble ANIMA—“a place of queer friendship and sustaining story: a place where old texts and melodies are animated by spirit and voice.” He teaches English and creative writing at Saint Mary’s University in Kjipuktuk/Halifax, Canada.
