The focus in American Hybrid is on the blend; the more than seventy poets featured here-including Jorie Graham, Albert Goldbarth, and LynHejinian-have found new and often unique ways to reconfigure the innumerable and sometimes conflicting voices of the past thirty years. The editors have crafted short introductory essays on each of the poets in the anthology, providing biographical backgrounds and positioning them within the current of contemporary poetry.
