Eliot as our first Poetry Editor.In every generation, Faber has sought to find the very best writers and we are proud to publish the foremost voices in fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama, film and children’s books. Thirteen Nobel Laureates and six Booker Prize-winners have been published by Faber, with awards most recently for Kazuo Ishiguro and Anna Burns.At Faber, we share a belief in the unique power of the published word to transform, to inspire and to challenge.
