LASKY, Dorothea (ed.)
Essays

“It is my belief that when writing an essay, the writer must ask the reader to go on a quest for new knowledge, for new forms, for new answers, and most importantly, for new questions, which is always a journey with no end in sight.”
—Dorothea Lasky

A pretty stimulating collection of essays by poets, inspired by the 2018 symposium, “More Than a Manifesto: The Poet’s Essay,” organized by Dorothea Lasky at the Columbia University Lenfest Center for the Arts.

With contributions by Ariel Goldberg, Ken Chen, Wayne Koestenbaum, Tracie Morris, Anaïs Duplan, Raquel Salas Rivera, Brandon Shimoda, Cecilia Vicuña, Fred Moten, and Mónica de la Torre.
