The International Poetry Book Awards is an annual English language poetry book award given to the best poetry books produced by indie writers, self-published authors or books published by small, truly independent presses. The contest was founded in 2020 by Welsh poet, novelist and photographer Dave Lewis, and supported by P.N. Review.
It was launched on New Year's Day 2020 in Pontypridd.
The competition's judges, who include Welsh poets, have been Mike Jenkins, Dave Lewis, John Evans and Mick Evans.
After many years of finding and promoting outstanding poets through the International Welsh Poetry Competition the Poetry Book Awards aim to bring further recognition to those writers who have produced a book-length collection of their work and hope to heighten a poet's profile by offering this new prize. In the first few years, they have already had entrants from Australia, Canada, Cyprus, England, France, Germany, Greece, India, Ireland, New Zealand, Mauritius, Netherlands, Portugal, Scotland, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, UAE, USA & Wales.
