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)

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, ...
