Coming at the genre from every possible angle, this celebrated critic discusses work by older and younger poets, most American but some foreign, and many of whom were not yet part of the contemporary canon. Her essays reveal a cultural history from the dismantling of the Berlin Wall, through 9\/11 and the Iraq War, and move into today's political climate. They chronicle personal interests while they also make note of what was happening in contemporary poetry by revealing overall changes of taste, both in content and in the use of craft. Over time, they fashion a comprehensive overview of the contemporary literary scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt its best, \u003cem\u003eWhat Persists\u003c\/em\u003e shows what a wide range of poetry is being written--by women, men, poets who celebrate their ethnicity, poets who show a fierce individualism, poets whose careers have soared, promising poets whose work has all but disappeared.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Judith Kitchen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820354805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820354804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Georgia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.94d","brand":"Judith Kitchen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926518235391,"sku":"9780820354804","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_4f79b9c5-c5be-4592-98b4-cf5ffc8f1585.jpg?v=1681083507","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-persists-judith-kitchen-9780820354804","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
