Nationally recognized poet X.J. Kennedy, says in his Foreword that, “Poetry is a house of many rooms, and whether a poet rhymes or doesn’t rhyme surely matters less than whether he or she writes with sufficient energy to seize readers and strum on their emotions and keep them reading to the bottom of the poem. This rough test, all the Powow River Poets pass with unfurled colors.” Kennedy continues by saying that, “Enough. Browse in this book, live with it, discover for yourself its generous rewards.”

The Powow River Anthology is a collection of poetry by 24 members of the prestigious Powow River Poets, founded in 1991.The collection is edited by Alfred Nicol, winner of the 2004 Richard Wilbur Award for Poetry. Nationally recognized poet X. J. Kennedy wrote the Foreword. National award-winning poets Timothy Steele, Lewis Turco, and Bruce Bennett provided endorsements for the cover. Renowned poets Rhina Espaillat, Deborah Warren, Len Krisak and others contributed their works to the collection. The book is best described by Timothy Steele when he says, “Like an oasis in the desert, this anthology offers a fertile refuge in the largely arid landscape of contemporary verse. Here readers can escape the bewildering, coercive heat of Poetry with a capital “P” and find many refreshing and memorable individual poems. Hats off to the remarkable Powow poets: long may they write and thrive.”
