| Clints |
| A list of good poetry and literary web sites |
| 1. Contemporary Poetry |
|
| This site contains a very good selection of contemporary poems. Their notion of "contemporary" is rather flexible, though. It stretches back to Emily Dickinson. |
| 2. English Literature on the Web |
|
| An attractive site with lots of familiar and not-so-familiar poems. |
| 3. Melic Review |
|
| A classy and intelligent magazine. In the (edited) words of C.E.Chaffin, Editor, this is a quarterly literary journal dedicated to intelligibility in verse without loss of quality. It has a light verse section that ranges from the urbane to the scatalogical. It welcomes microfiction (about 1000 words) but doesn't get enough. Some of its authors are: Lucile Blanchard, Alison Croggon, Katrina Grace Craig, Richard Fein, Sharon Kouros, Jennifer Ley, Scott Murphy, Deborah Q. Smith, David Sutherland and Teresa White. |
| 4. Paul Muldoon |
|
| Paul Muldoon reading from his work: University of Arizona Poetry Center, Visiting Poets and Writers Reading Series January 30, 2002. Available in Real Audio format. Get the Real Audio Player here. |
| 5. Poetry Daily |
|
| An excellent poetry site. It features a continuously changing selection of good contemporary poems mostly by US poets well-known and not so well known in Britain. But many other poems come from British poets and those of other nationalities. Don't miss this site if you want to acquaint yourself with good current poetry. |
| 6. Small Spiral Notebook |
|
| Poetry, fiction, non-fiction. A nice, softly-designed site from New York. |
| 7. The Richmond Review |
|
A good web magazine, published from Richmond-upon-Thames (not Richmond, Virginia) and it carries high-class poetry.
You might encounter Mark Doty, Sophie Hannah, George Szirtes. The Richmond Review is a no-nonsense production with clear uncluttered pages - just as it should be. |
