Planet: The Welsh Internationalist
is an English-medium bi-monthly magazine covering the arts, politics and culture in Wales and beyond. Our aim is to provide comment and analysis on political affairs at home and abroad, profiles of key figures in contemporary Welsh life (political, literary, artistic), poems and short stories by both Welsh and internationally acclaimed writers, and up-to-the-minute, well informed and expertly written features on Welsh art, film, theatre, pop, TV and sport.
We also publish books over a wide range of subjects - from Welsh art history (Words with Pictures by Peter Lord) to translations of European classics (Things by the Galician writer Alfonso R. Castelao; The Wind Itself by the Swedish poet Werner Aspenström), and from Anglo-Welsh dialect poems (Coulda Bin Summin by Mike Jenkins) to personal memoirs (Sugar & Slate by Charlotte Williams). Planet, which appears 6 times a year in an attractively illustrated book-like format, is one of the best-looking magazines around. The contents last too - so you'll find yourself returning to Planet's pages long after the first reading. |

| TESTIMONIALS | |

"Its coverage is phenomenal - and vigorous, yet perceptive. It is the antidote to dumbing down. It is of course concerned with Wales, but it is intuitively international. Planet is an experience."

"Planet is that rare beast in the Welsh press jungle - an informed, entertaining, challenging product - a must-read for anyone who's serious about discussing the big issues that face us as a nation."

"Yn ei drafodaeth drylwyr o ddiwylliant a chymdeithas amrywiol Cymru, ei lwyddiannau, ei ffaeleddau, ei wleidyddiaeth, ei sefyllfa yn y byd, mae Planet yn ychwanegu at y diwylliant hwnnw. Medrwn 'ddarllen' ein cymdeithas yn ei dudalennau."
(In its detailed discussion of Wales's varied culture and society, its successes, its failures, its politics, its situation in the world, Planet contributes to that culture. We can "read" our society in its pages.) Iwan Bala |
