Description

“This anthology brings together for the first time some of the best anarchist poetry of this century, over 200 hundred poems from 70 poets…Their poetry speaks of immense events that touch us all, wars famines, revolutions. The constraints of petty regulations. The everyday of work and love and simply getting by.” 

Seventy anarchist poets provide 200 poems for this stunning anthology, beautifully illustrated by Clifford Harper. All the big names are here – Allen Ginsberg, Adrian Mitchell, Ursula Le Guin, Kenneth Rexroth, George Woodcock – as well as a host of other worthies. A rare treat. 

 

“Look, it’s a book of poetry. So if you aren’t into poems, you won’t like it. But… and here’s the important bit. If you do like poems, and you fancy yourself a bit of a radical, then this book has it all: Poems by radicals. Poems about radicals. Radical poetry about poetic radicals… It’s all there.” – James
