Overview

WINNER OF THE 2018 NEBRASKA BOOK AWARD IN POETRY
The first anthology of its scope, Nebraska Poetry encompasses 150 years of the state's literary history, featuring 80-plus poets and more than 180 poems. This landmark collection includes poems by authors best known for their prose--like Willa Cather, Loren Eiseley, and Tillie Olsen--as well as some remarkable but relatively forgotten writers from the late nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries. Among the contemporary writers, it includes poets of Nebraska's renowned "second renaissance" along with a rich array of younger writers who are redefining what poetry from and about the state might represent. A broadly inclusive as well as diverse anthology, Nebraska Poetry celebrates the state's brilliant contribution not only to Great Plains literature but to the broader traditions of American letters.
