This anthology celebrates 50 years of Copper Canyon Press publications, one extraordinary poem at a time. Since its founding, Copper Canyon has been entirely dedicated to publishing poetry books; here Editor in Chief Michael Wiegers invites press staff and board--past and present--to help curate a retrospective. The result is a collection of beloved poems from books spanning half a century: representing Pulitzer Prize-winning books, debut collections, works in translation, and rare books from Copper Canyon's early days. This book is a tribute to Copper Canyon poets and readers everywhere, because, as Gregory Orr writes, "Certain poems / In an uncertain world-- / The ones we cling to: // They bring us back."
