"Filled with the best poetry written in the last fifty years, this anthology showcases the work of poets from Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin America, and the English-speaking world (the United States, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia). Originally conceived by editor Jeffery Paine with poet Joseph Brodsky, The Poetry of Our World is framed by essays from distinguished poets, scholars, and critics that provide the context within which a reader can appreciate the poems selected by each of them."--BOOK JACKET.
