The New York Quarterly, Number 60 Raymond Hammond

Publisher Marketing: 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 60 features a craft interview with Gary Goude; an editorial on poetry and real life; an essay, "Poems from the Crypt Don't Speak to Living People," by Linda Lerner; and poetry by Charles Bukowski, Gary Goude, David Lehman, Antler, Lyn Lifshin, Roger Armbrust, William E. Dudley, Taylor Graham, William Baer, Constantine Contogenis, Tony Demarest, Paul Hicks, Bob Watts, Smith, Tony Gloeggler, Mary de Rachewiltz, Stephen Stepanchev, Andrew Glaze, Lisa Palma, Katherine Litwin, Yoon Sik Kim, Simon Perchik, Scott Odom, Monte Holman, Ira Joe Fisher, Kevin Dobbs, Jo McKendry, Franz Douskey, Todd Moore, Douglas Treem, Candace Polson, Douglas Goetsch, Beth Cagle Burt, Fred Johnson, Shelly Stenhouse, Corrine De Winter, Judith Cody, Nicole Blackman, Karen S.
