Ambit is a quarterly, 96 page magazine that prints original poetry, short fiction, art and reviews.

Ambit was started in 1959 by Martin Bax. Other editors include J.G. Ballard, Carol Ann Duffy, Michael Foreman, Henry Graham and Geoff Nicholson.

Ambit is published in the UK and read internationally. It's available through subscription and in selected bookshops and libraries worldwide.

‘Ambit is a surreptitious peek inside a private world. Without it such vital sparks of inspiration could well be lost for ever.’
RALPH STEADMAN
