5.0 out of 5 stars Still one of the finest contemporary poetry anthologies, July 8, 2005
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: American Poetry Since 1970: Up Late (Paperback)
If you're interested in contemporary & postmodern poetry, this is a better place than most to start. Codrescu doesn't come to the task of anthologizing with an ideological bone to pick. He requires only excellent, passionate speech. Unlike many anthologies, the range of styles is huge. What you won't get here is safe poetry, written by comfortable people more interested in keeping their jobs in some lame creative writing program than they are in their subject matter. You won't like everything in here, but you'll be stunned and amazed by much of it, and it will change the way you think about poetry. Very highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, April 9, 2011
This review is from: American Poetry Since 1970: Up Late (Paperback)
If you are getting into poetry this is a wonderful selection. For the new poet and the old, each poem is selected especially to convey a message-a change in poetry, and yet, to always be in keeping of the classics.
