More Description
Selected from more than 400 full-length manuscripts, this collection of nearly 50 poems, published on the eve of Kore Press’s 20th anniversary, celebrates the publisher’s enduring commitment to promote new aesthetically and culturally diverse writing by women. The anthology gathers the voices of a diverse group of female poets, most of whom are up-and-coming, others established, all of them with an original, fresh way of viewing the world. In hens and family suffering, in the present and in the past, in Inanna and Wittgenstein, in a piñata and an archaeological shard, the poets whose work is featured in this collection find the materials to build bridges across the gaps that create distance and conflict.
