Longlisted for the Laurel Prize 2024

I am delighted that judges Mona Arshi, Caroline Bird and Kwame Dawes have deemed 'East of the Sun, West of the Moon' published by Seren Books in February this year to be in the longlist for the Laurel Prize 2024. I am truly grateful to be among such a cherished group of poets and wishing the eventual winners all the best.

I thank my writing mentor Zoe Bigley, everyone at my publisher Seren Books (https://www.serenbooks.com/2024/09/taz-rahman-longlisted-for-the-laurel-prize-2024/) and organisations such as Literature Wales and the Books Council of Wales to have supported me in various guises to make this book possible.
