- Synopsis
- Renowned poet Mary Jo Salter, whose command of verse forms and high intelligence is universally acknowledged, selects the poems for the 2024 edition of The Best American Poetry, &“a &‘best&’ anthology that really lives up to its title&” (Chicago Tribune).The Best American Poetry series has been &“one of the mainstays of the poetry publication world&” (Academy of American Poets) since 1988. Each volume presents a curated selection of the year&’s most brilliant, striking, and innovative poems, with comments from the poets themselves offering unique insight into their work. Here, guest editor Mary Jo Salter, whose own poems display a sublime wit &“driven by a compulsion to confront the inexplicable&” (James Longenbach), has picked seventy-five poems that capture the dynamism of American poetry today. The series and guest editors contribute valuable introductory essays that assess the current state of American poetry, and this year&’s edition is certain to capture the attention of both Best American Poetry loyalists and newcomers to the most important poetry anthology of our time.
