Jorie Graham, shortlisted for the T. S. Eliot Prize 2026 with her collection Killing Spree (Carcanet Press), is the featured poet in this week’s Eliot Prize newsletter.
The newsletter tells you about the wide range of content we have created to help you get to know Jorie and her work.
In the latest additions to the celebrated T. S. Eliot Prize video series, Jorie reads two poems from Killing Spree: ‘When the End Stars’, ‘The World’ and ‘Deep Winter Stars’. Jorie also talks movingly about her collection in a wide-ranging video interview. And remember to subscribe to the T. S. Eliot Prize channel on YouTube to view all our videos as we publish them.
We have published a searching review of Killing Spree, commissioned from John Field, which offers vivid insights into the work. You can also download the Reader’s Notes, which include a selection of poems from the collection, plus reviews, reading suggestions, and a writing prompt or two for those inspired to respond creatively. Use these to inspire deeper readings of the book, and to share with friends, book groups or writing workshops.
