The group, held on its online bookshop (www.poetrybookshoponline.com) will be free to join and open to all.

Two books will be discussed each month in specially commissioned articles: the first being The Forward Book of Poetry 2011, discussed by poet Ruth Padel, and Seamus Heaney's Human Chain,
which poet Gwyneth Lewis will write about.

Enrolled reading group members will be given discount offers on the featured titles.
