About

The Berkeley Poetry Review (BPR), the longstanding poetry journal affiliated with the University of California, Berkeley, has published an annual issue of poetry and interviews since 1974. Poets we have published in the past include Robert Pinsky, Robert Hass, Josephine Miles, Cole Swensen, John Ashbery, August Kleinzahler, and many more. Today, we aim to continue our tradition of publishing new talent alongside poets with established reputations. Though our tastes are broad and eclectic, with each issue we strive to assemble a body of work that is relevant to contemporary concerns but not faddish, literary but not restrictive, and audacious but not self-applauding. We are willing to publish all genres, styles, and approaches; in turn, we ask that you send us your best work.
