"New European Poets, in its scope and ambition, is destined to be a seminal anthology, an important vehicle for American readers to discover the extraordinary poetry being written now across the Atlantic."
—EDWARD HIRSCH
“New European Poets collects, for the
first time, the work of poets from the latter twentieth century and the
beginning of the twenty-first, together with new generations of translators of
the poetry of Europe. For this
impressive undertaking, for the knowledge, discernment and generosity of its
editors, my gratitude is immense.”
—CAROLYN FORCHE
“Sure to be a boon to all kinds of poetry lovers and an
important reference for decades to come.”
—PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“New European Poets
will break new ground for translation and for shifting attention back to the
grand European tradition—a timeless dimension of poetry whose vibrancy is vital
in keeping global writing connected.”
—RAIN TAXI
“…a wealth and diversity of
work, selected and arranged in a balanced fashion that promises a number of
great discoveries.”
—SOUND OFF
“New
European Poets expands the poetic horizons and offers an updated map to
continue the exchange between American and Europe. Instead of the same old
canon of work, the book offers something contemporary readers may be unfamiliar
with: a heightened sense of discovery.”
—THE FEMINIST REVIEW
“This guidebook fills a need for American poets and
readers of poetry.”
