Down This Crooked Road: Modern Poetry from the Road Less Traveled

Seven poets who represent some of the best writing that the underground small press has to offer. The poets included here are not from a particular school, at least not one that has been invented as of yet. What connects these writers is obviously not location, or even style of writing, but more a spirit that I feel shines through in the work of all involved. All the poetry contained here is accessible without being mundane, well crafted without being academic... Poetry for people who might not realize they like poetry. The authors collected here are writing some of the best poetry out there right now, period. (from the introduction by William Taylor, Jr.)
