About this book

What are the means available to poetry to address crisis and how can both poets and critics meet the conflicts and challenges they face? This collection of essays addresses poetic and critical responses to the various crises encountered by contemporary writers and our society, from the Holocaust to the ecological crisis.

Reviews

'Focusing on poetry from Britain, Ireland and the USA, Crisis and Contemporary Poetry dissects and discusses a number of controversial issues within poetry...It does this in a totally refreshing and inviting manner, which, by the book's end, enables one to feel both entriched and enlightened.' - David Marx Book Reviews
