NEW POETRIES VI & VII
New Poetries VI
Edited by Michael Schmidt & Helen Tookey
Carcanet Press, 2015
This engaging and influential series of anthologies have never sought to identify a ‘school’, much less a ‘generation’: the poets included employ a wide range of styles, forms and approaches, and ‘new’ need not be taken to imply ‘young’. Poets in this volume include Vahni Capildeo, Alex Wong and Claudine Toutongi.
