The New York Quarterly, Number 44

Since its founding in 1969 by William Packard, The New York Quarterly has been devoted to excellence in the publication of a unique and fervent cross-section of contemporary American poetry regardless of school of thought, style, or genre. Our only concern is to focus on the craft that underlies effective poetry writing. The New York Quarterly features works by both known and emerging poets. The NYQ Craft Interviews present the views of some of our most outstanding poets on the general subjects of style, prosody and technique. The issues are rounded out with an essay or two on the subject of contemporary American poetry that is both accessible and meaningful to readers, poets, students, and teachers of poetry alike.

NYQ 44 features a craft interview with Donald Lev, an editorial on Savanarola, an essay by Jalaine Halsall, and poetry by Leo Connellan, Charles Bukowski, James Broughton, Lyn Lifshin, Simon Perchik, Franz Douskey, Knute Skinner, Judson Crews, Antler, Norman Stock, Donald Lev, Anna Adams, Andrew Glaze, B.
