We strive to keep this vision alive.<\/p>\n The magazine appears three times a year and each issue, with its spacious A4 pages, has fifty or so poems, an editorial and occasional, commissioned, prose pieces. Most of the space is occupied by the best new poems we can find, all wrapped up in our famously vibrant beautiful covers.<\/p>\n The Rialto<\/em> has been called ‘Simply the best’ by Carol Ann Duffy and ‘A terrific magazine’ by Seamus Heaney.<\/p>\n At the start of the new millennium The Rialto<\/em> published a short run of first collections. In 2005 we turned our energy to publishing pamphlets and began our Bridge Pamphlets list. These have so far been by poets who we’ve asked to submit work. We also run a poetry pamphlet competition which has become a fixture of how we discover new work. Oh, and we\u00a0 haven’t forgotten about first collections \u2013 we launched Dean Parkin’s The Swan Machine<\/em><\/a> at last autumn’s Aldeburgh Poetry Festival, and published Matt Howard’s award winning Gall<\/em><\/a> in 2018.<\/p>\n Laura Scott’s pamphlet What I Saw<\/em> won the Michael Marks Award in 2014, and several of our first collections are winners of major awards.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.therialto.co.uk\/pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rialto-poetry-magazine-2000px.jpg” _builder_version=”4.16″ vertical_offset_tablet=”0″ horizontal_offset_tablet=”0″ z_index_tablet=”0″ box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_vertical_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_blur_tablet=”40px” box_shadow_spread_tablet=”0px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ vertical_offset_tablet=”0″ vertical_offset_phone=”0″ horizontal_offset_tablet=”0″ horizontal_offset_phone=”0″ custom_padding_tablet=”|||” custom_padding_phone=”|||” background_color_gradient_direction_tablet=”180deg” background_color_gradient_direction_phone=”180deg” background_color_gradient_stops_tablet=”#2b87da 0%|#29c4a9 100%” background_color_gradient_stops_phone=”#2b87da 0%|#29c4a9 100%” background_color_gradient_start_position_tablet=”0%” background_color_gradient_start_position_phone=”0%” background_color_gradient_end_position_tablet=”100%” background_color_gradient_end_position_phone=”100%” z_index_tablet=”2″ z_index_phone=”2″ filter_hue_rotate_tablet=”0deg” filter_hue_rotate_phone=”0deg” filter_saturate_tablet=”100%” filter_saturate_phone=”100%” filter_brightness_tablet=”100%” filter_brightness_phone=”100%” filter_contrast_tablet=”100%” filter_contrast_phone=”100%” filter_invert_tablet=”0%” filter_invert_phone=”0%” filter_sepia_tablet=”0%” filter_sepia_phone=”0%” filter_opacity_tablet=”100%” filter_opacity_phone=”100%” filter_blur_tablet=”0px” filter_blur_phone=”0px” animation_duration_tablet=”1000ms” animation_duration_phone=”1000ms” animation_delay_tablet=”0ms” animation_delay_phone=”0ms” animation_intensity_slide_tablet=”50%” animation_intensity_slide_phone=”50%” animation_intensity_zoom_tablet=”50%” animation_intensity_zoom_phone=”50%” animation_intensity_flip_tablet=”50%” animation_intensity_flip_phone=”50%” animation_intensity_fold_tablet=”50%” animation_intensity_fold_phone=”50%” animation_intensity_roll_tablet=”50%” animation_intensity_roll_phone=”50%” animation_starting_opacity_tablet=”0%” animation_starting_opacity_phone=”0%” hover_transition_duration_tablet=”300ms” hover_transition_duration_phone=”300ms” hover_transition_delay_tablet=”0ms” hover_transition_delay_phone=”0ms” border_color_all=”#969696″ border_style_all=”dashed” box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_horizontal_phone=”0px” box_shadow_vertical_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_vertical_phone=”0px” box_shadow_blur_tablet=”40px” box_shadow_blur_phone=”40px” box_shadow_spread_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_spread_phone=”0px” disabled=”%91object HTMLInputElement%93″ global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_testimonial author=”Hannah Lowe” portrait_url=”https:\/\/therialto.co.uk\/pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/pic-of-hannah-lowe-1.jpg” quote_icon=”off” admin_label=”Hannah Testimonial” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ body_font_size=”16″ use_background_color=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”20|20|20|20″ border_width_all=”1px” border_color_all=”#aaaaaa” border_style_all=”dotted” use_border_color=”on” border_color=”#aaaaaa” border_style=”dotted” portrait_border_radius=”0″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n \u201cThe Rialto is the poetry magazine to read \u2013 publishing poems that are formally inventive and alive to the ‘here and now’ of the world, but always with a commitment to the humane and compassionate qualities I believe the best poetry has.
