Book SynopsisEntering its fifteenth year,
Best New Poets has established itself as a crucial venue for rising poets and a valuable resource for poetry lovers. The poems included in this eclectic sampling represent the best from the many that have been nominated by America's top literary magazines and writing programs.
Trade ReviewPraise for earlier editions: "[A] reminder that contemporary poetry is not only alive and well but continuing to grow." -
Publishers Weekly"This collection stands out among the crowd claiming to represent emergent poets. Much of the editing and preliminary reading was done by emerging poets themselves, which results in an anthology that's fresh and eclectic, and may actually represent a significant portion of the best new poetry being written by the next generation." - Virginia Quarterly Review
