Praise for earlier editions: "Unlike novelists and bad-boy
memoirists, emerging poets are unlikely to sprawl on Oprah's couch,
date starlets, or rouse bidding wars. With an alert ear for new
voices, this anthology offers a different kind of validation: that
of being well heard. The result is a vibrant smorgasbord.... [
"Best New Poets"] bears evidence of the insistent inquiries of self
and the world that drive poetry."-- "Foreword" "[One] comes to
realize that the adjectives 'new' and 'emerging' are mere
technicalities in this instance. Although none of the poets
included here have published a full-length book of poetry, many are
MFA students or graduates, and chapbook authors, and most have
already seen some of their poems published in the most renowned and
exclusive journals in North America.... The result is a remarkably
diverse mix of poems."-- "BookPleasures""It's a nervy thing for an
anthology to label itself "Best New Poets," but once again this
collection lives up to its name. It's a rich and readable
selection, reflecting no party-line aesthetic, and attesting to the
formidable promise of the emerging generation."--David WojahnIn
