New European Poets

Graywolf Press, 2008

Exciting anthology!
This is an excellent collection of contemporary poetry from all over Europe, including the more exotic and less familiar geography. Irina Ratushinskaya is included, from Russia. She is a poet I have long admired, who was imprisoned for years for her powerful words ...
  
  











  



  
Strange Wood (Winthrop University Poetry Series)
Kevin Prufer

Louisiana State University Press, 1998

Cool but really creepy
I heard Prufer read recently. The guy is really funny. The book, on the other hand, is creepy. In a good way. Lots of dying cats, adolescent boys, confused old people wandering around in these poems. Lots of bad weather. The whole package is terrific . . . best ...

The Finger Bone
Kevin Prufer

Carnegie Mellon Univ Pr, 2002

Terrific poetry
It took a little while, but this book really grew on me. Prufer has a remarkable facility for musical language and an eerie, spooky sense of imagery. He also has terrific range: there are sonnets here as well as fragmented, elliptical poems. Some of these poems are ...
  
  











  



  
The New Young American Poets: An Anthology

Southern Illinois University Press, 2000

Hubbub and Democracy
OK, this book has generated about as much hubbub as a poetry anthology is likely to generate. Everyone wants their say about who the next generation of poets is . . . and everyone will have a gripe with at least a couple of the people included here. Fact is, though, ...
