Über das Buch

What motivates poets in the 21st century? How do they find their voice? What themes and subject matters inspire them? How do they cope with set-backs and deal with success? What keeps them writing?

Why I Write Poetry, edited by

Ian Humphreys, combines lively and thought-provoking essays, along with individual writing prompts to help you create your own new poetry.In this book, twenty-five contemporary poets reflect with insight, wit and wisdom on the writing life. Each offers their distinctive take on what inspires and spurs them on to write poetry. The essays shine a light on everything from performance, dialect, the body and paying attention, to bearing witness, finding your wings and joining the journey of poetry, and encompass the practical, personal, and political. Within these pages, you'll discover how a poet's background and values can fundamentally shape and inform their work. New voices sit alongside poets with many collections under their belts and you'll find encouragement, creative provocations, advice and, above all, reasons to write. Read on, learn and enjoy.With essays by: Romalyn Ante, Khairani Barokka, Hafsah Aneela Bashir, Leo Boix, Vahni Capildeo, Mary Jean Chan, Jo Clement, Sarah Corbett, Jane Commane, Rishi Dastidar, Jonathan Edwards, Rosie Garland, W.
