New European Poets is an anthology of Anthology poetry, translated by Kevin Prufer, Wayne Miller, Various, published by Graywolf Press in 2008. It is an anthology of contemporary European poetry that opens a large, uneven, and necessary field of postwar and postnational voices. As an anthology, it is useful because Europe appears not as one tradition but as a set of borders, inheritances, experiments, and languages arguing with each other. I would not approach it as a book that needs to be solved before it can be felt. Start with the pressure of the title, the texture of the translated line, and the feeling of a voice making room for itself in English. For this library, the book matters as more than a record of Anthology; it is an invitation to let poetry remain particular, difficult, and alive without asking it to behave like explanation.

If you’d like to see international poetry continue and gain traction, consider requesting this work from your local library, or purchasing it from places like Open Books (a poetry only bookstore), Asterism Books (an independent press distributor), or bookshop.org to connect you with your local bookstores.
