Modernist Women Poets

“The poems collected in Modernist Women Poets: An Anthology are diverse, but they are linked, too. Each seems to gaze directly and speak indirectly –– or sometimes vice–versa –– in that quintessentially modernist mode, even as the particulars of intention and expression are distinct and individual. […] How inspiring and heartening it is to read their daring attempts to do something entirely new with language, undertaken both in seriousness and wild play.” —Bookslut

“Co–editors Hass (a former U.S. Poet Laureate) and Ebenkamp have produced that rare, valuable thing: a volume that could be at once a resource for educators, and a fine entrée for the general reader.” — Publisher’s Weekly Starred Review

[Praise for Robert Hass]
“[Robert] Hass has significantly broadened the role of poet laureate to include not only his love for poetry but also his concern for literacy and his passion for environmentalism.”—Los Angeles Times

“No Practicing poet has more talent than Robert Hass.”—The Atlantic Monthly
