For this collection, a number of contemporary poets, distinguished
by their energy and thoughtfulness, were asked to write on aspects
of the working processes of poetry in whatever ways they believed
would be helpful to readers. The result is an invaluable account of
their reflections on writing and its conditions, on their
enthusiasms, and on their sense of the directions of others' poetry
as well as of their own. Some poems, preoccupied by the questions
of this book, are included. A scarcely-documented history of
sustained work in Britain, non-parochial and outside a restricted
"mainstream" is illuminated in these essays; many of the
contributors here are or have been small-press publishers and
journal editors too. This engaging book will serve as an
introduction to the work of some fine writers, as it debates
questions of significance for readers and writers of contemporary
poetry.
