Here’s more from the announcement:
“The blog provides an opportunity for a group of talented contemporary poets who represent diverse poetic styles to sound off on some of the greatest American poets and their books, with one original essay published each weekday into May, 2011.”
The blog launched on February 14th with an essay by Ross Gay. The essay paid tribute to William Carlos Williams, the poet who won the first National Book Award for Poetry in 1950. Other poet contributors included Katie Peterson, Lee Felice Pinkas, and John Murillo.
