Oxford Poets 2004

An Anthology

Constantine David

The fourth "OxfordPoets" anthology brings together the work of both new and of more established poets and introduces them to a wider readership. Like previous "OxfordPoets" anthologies, it celebrates the vitality of the new writing on the Oxford list. The poets included represent the rich variety of concerns, voices and strategies in current writing. All share the candour and invention that are hallmarks of the series.
