Internationally renowned for quality in literature and excellence in book design, its authors and books have won virtually every major literary award given to poetry, from the T.S. Eliot Prize and Pulitzer to the Nobel Prize (this year's winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, Tomas Tranströmer, is the sixth Nobel Laureate to be published in the UK by Bloodaxe).  Alongside a substantial list of books in translation, Bloodaxe publishes both new and established poets from Britain and Ireland, as well as many poets from the US. And anthologies such as the Staying Alive trilogy have broken new ground by opening up contemporary poetry to many thousands of new readers.
