InFiltration

In|Filtration is an anthology of contemporary Hudson Valley poetry by poets who work in an innovative vein—poets whose work is either original formally or that uses given poetic forms in new ways: old bottle/new wine; new bottle/old wine; and, sometimes, new bottle/new wine. Much of the poetry here is directly or indirectly in conversation with national and international movements directed toward more exploratory uses of the medium—work that goes beyond the explorer’s map into uncharted territories—places where the map tatters in the explorer’s pocket and another world begins. Like explorers we have sought to map the current currents of radical poetics in the Hudson Valley.
