Publisher's Description: The New York Quarterly was established in 1969 by editor William Packard out of a growing concern for the pure craft and technique of poetry writing. We are not so much interested in schools or fashions or aesthetic theories or critical estimates as we are in those principles of poetry which cut across any and all schools.
For forty years, NYQ has featured the most eclectic cross-section of contemporary American poetry, craft interviews with outstanding poets on the general subject of style and prosody and technique, informational articles on poets and poetry — materials of lasting value to the practicing poet.
Recent contributors include Marge Piercy, David Lehman, Timothy Liu, F. D. Reeve and W.D. Snodgrass.
Recent issues:
