The Test Site Poetry Series Prize A project of Interim: Poetry & Poetics About As our series title suggests, we’re looking for manuscripts that engage the perilous conditions of life in the 21st century, as they pertain to issues of social justice and the earth. The winning book will demonstrate an ethos that considers the human condition in inclusive love and sympathy, while offering the same in consideration of the earth. Because we believe the truth is always experimental, we’ll especially appreciate books with innovative approaches. Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions.
