Seller's Description:
New York. 1994. September 1996. Scribners. 1st Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684814552. 318 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Julie Metz. keywords: Poetry America Anthology. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Now in its ninth year, The Best American Poetry is universally acclaimed as the best anthology in the field. The compilation includes a diverse abundance of poems published in 1995 in more than 40 publications ranging from The New Yorker to The Paris Review to Bamboo Ridge. 'Rich has amassed a far-flung group to represent her view of America. These poets were born in Jamaica, China, Mexico, South Africa, Canada, Hawaii and the mainland. There are professors and prisoners, a medical student and a jazz critic. Rich embraces both the bilingual and the long poem, but what is truly startling is how little these poets say of joy and how much of suffering. It is a heavy read. Alicia Ostriker writes of the Holocaust, Wang Ping of the deaths of Chinese stowaways, Gary Soto of the destitute. There are three poets born after 1975, testing human experience and response: Deborah Stein, Quentin Rowan and Natasha Le Bel (‘my born body new and/ gravid with musical sensuality'). And four poets who passed away last year haunt the anthology with meditations on death: William Dickey, Jane Kenyon, James Merrill and Jean Starr (‘I have felt each living link begin to wither'). David Lehman is the series editor. '-PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. inventory #22673.
