This will be one of the leading lit journals of the 21st century; smart, unobtrusive, and a great selection of artists.

OK. Semi-political motivations aside, this is a good collection that deserves sales in keeping with any other compilation. There are some fantastic poems from both established and up-and-coming poets.
