Vanishing Points: Anthologies

Editat de John Kinsella, Rod Mengham

This major international anthology provides students and the general reader with an invaluable introduction to contemporary modernist poetry. Containing over thirty poets from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and USA, this selection offers a powerful vision of late-Twentieth-century poetic achievement: international, politically- and socially-engaged, and radical in imaginative vision and practice. It celebrates risk, resistance, protest and diversity within poetry, reaching across national and cultural boundaries.

Recenzii

Amidst the plethora of anthologies which flood the British market there are two which stand out, distinguished, alone, separate: the first "Conductors of Chaos" (Picador 1996) is now out of print and the second is this recently published delight from Salt Publishing, "Vanishing Points". Buy it! Keep it with you. Dip into it time and time again. -- Ian Brinton The Use of English "Vanishing Points" […] achieves an informative line, which looks both ways as it crosses and spans an international reach. The poems work best when self-conscious and projected imports coincide in order to build, not merely deconstruct, sense. Andrew Crozier's poetry represents a persuasive recombination of old and new lyric tones, as words embody falling back through endnotes to stand for the uptake of fresh insight: 'Divisions interposed … rise to the surface.' -- Sarah Wardle The Guardian
