Byrne is renowned for his commitment to international poetries and poetics. He is the International Editor for Arc Publications and was editor of The Wolf, which he co-founded, from 2002-2017. In 2012, with ko ko thett, Byrne co-edited Bones Will Crow, the first anthology of contemporary Burmese poetry to be published in English (Arc, 2012).

Byrne's poems have been translated into several languages and his Selected Poems (Poemas Escogidos) was published in Spanish in 2019 by Buenos Aires Poetry (translated by Katherine M. Hedeen and Víctor Rodríguez Núñez).
John Kinsella has written that 'James Byrne is a phenomenon and Blood/Sugar is astonishing…He is a complete original.' Ishion Hutchinson wrote of White Coins: 'this is language charged with a tough, sensual contraflow music, vividly alive to inquiry and witness […] an astonishing work, one where virtù and gravitas are in concord with a hermetic passion, one fiercely and beautifully saying the unsayable.'
