Sean O’Brien Wins the Forward Poetry Prize
Written by Chris Routledge, 3rd October 2007
Sean O'Brien has become the first person to win the Forward Poetry Prize three times, picking up the £10,000 poobah for his collection The Drowned Book. Daljit Nagra won the £5,000 prize for best first collection while Alice Oswald took home £1,000 for best poem, the category won by Nagra in 2004.
We reported on the shortlist back in August.
