Mythic America: an Anthology of New American Poetry (Pagan America) 2nd edition

MYTHIC AMERICA: AN ANTHOLOGY OF NEW AMERICAN POETRY Part of the Pagan American Series Edited by Jeremy Mark Robinson A book of passionate poetry from North America and Canada. There are many new poems published here, many young poets, and poets being published for the first time. Some of the writers have been published in small magazines in the U. S. A., while others, such as Siouxsie D, have given poetry readings. The term ?pagan? is used very loosely here, to denote a poetry of a religious, spiritual, mystical or magical nature. Many poems in this book are love poems. There are pieces in the contemplative tradition of Rainer Maria Rilke or the Metaphysical poets. One can discern elements of the American poetic tradition in the poets here: the nature mysticism of Robert Frost, the expansive calls-to-arms of Walt Whitman, the incisiveness of Laura Riding, or the laid-back, anecdotal style of Charles Bukowski. The Pagan America Series includes volumes of new love poetry by women poets, entitled Love in America, Sex in America and Erotic America. Other titles are: Pagan America, Sacred America and Magical America. Includes notes on contributors. www.crmoon.com
