The Ecco anthology of international poetry is an anthology of Anthology poetry, translated by Ilya Kaminsky, Various, published by Ecco in 2010. It is an anthology of international poetry designed to bring many languages and traditions into a single English-language gathering. As an anthology, its importance is breadth, though breadth should never be mistaken for completion; it offers a map, not the world itself. 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.
