Minnesota Writes: Poetry

by Jim Moore

On This Page

Description

"This is the first comprehensive anthology of Minnesota poetry to appear in many years. It includes generous selections of work by poets familiar to all readers of contemporary poetry, Robert Bly and Thomas McGrath among them; but there is also work by many newer poets, poets whose voices articulate the diversity and breadth of concern that reflect the exhilarating growth of the poetry community in Minnesota over the past 15 years. While much of the work included in the anthology responds to show more midwestern and specifically Minnesotan landscape, a sense of place that is landlocked and interior, it is also a poetry that reflects the realities of what it means to live in the late twentieth century: the regional is instantly linked to the national and the global."--Back cover. show less
