"American Alphabets showcases poems that are as immediate as they are passionate: an impressive collection of poets whose work defines the diversity and complexity of America, and a work whose resonance will be felt for a long time."

--Mark Irwin

A major new anthology of recent American poetry, featuring generous selections of the work of 25 extraordinary poets born since World War II, with thoughtful introductions and annotations. In language of striking originality and beauty, these poets illuminate the complexities of contemporary life and chart the contours of the American landscape.
