Poetry's House of Lords?

One slight concern I had about the Anvil catalogue was that so much of it was written by men: 10 out of 12 poets with collections written in English and 13 out of 14 in translation.

It's also strange to read about so many books by old(er) writers. It left me wondering whether it was notable simply because most media under-represents older people, or because it really was long-in-the-tooth poetry.

Either way, the contents look very high quality, even if it does seem to have a similar demographic make-up to the House of Lords...
