    <![CDATA[Understanding the current moment in poetry can be a difficult task, as the reader must sort among the avant-garde and mainstream, the traditional and the experimental. A welcome introduction to contemporary poetics, this collection represents one of the first attempts to chart the progress of a new generation of poets. Each chapter focuses on one poet, and includes a selection of poems, a brief statement of purpose by the poet, and a critical essay by a notable scholar. Working in forms ranging from the post-confessional lyric to documentary poetics, from the prose poem and the sonnet to sound poetry, these thirteen poets rank among the most notable and distinct of recent years. American Poets in the 21st Century will serve as a useful and enlightening guide for any reader interested in how new American poetry can look, feel, and sound. The enclosed CD includes each of the thirteen poets reading their work.<br/><br/>Poets include: Joshua Clover, Stacy Doris, Peter Gizzi, Kenneth Goldsmith, Myung Mi Kim, Mark Levine, Tracie Morris, Mark Nowak, D.A. Powell, Juliana Spahr, Karen Volkman, Susan Wheeler, and Kevin Young.]]>

  <description>
    <![CDATA[The Way Out dares to enter the many underworlds of human existence: that of Persephone, that of Dante, and that of contemporary life.  At once dark and affirmative, the poems move from personal observation to personal disclosure, never averting their gaze from the face they are seeing.  Lisa Sewell is the unusual poet who uses the confessional mode in the service of reflecting fully, and with fidelity, the moment in which we now find ourselves.  Her bodies, faces, temperaments, resemble our own, and these poems are a record of what it means to be human and American in the last years of the twentieth century.]]>

  <description>
    <![CDATA[&quot;Name Withheld is the dark side of confession's moon, where privacy deepens because utterance--rich and elusive--reproves the voyeur, withholds what it must. Language hunts what is 'nocturnal, difficult to spot,' heady with contradiction, dissonance, dismay, 'unmappable,' yet moving at the core, her lines like the meteor's tail, 'gesturing back to the heart of the radiant.'&quot; --Eleanor Wilner]]>
