Published between 1968 and 1975, Adventures in Poetry was edited by poet Larry Fagin and printed and assembled at The Poetry Project at St. Mark’s Church in-the-Bowery. Featured in its pages is writing by many poets associated with the first and second generation of the New York School. Surreal and often playful, the work provides a valuable access point into a vibrant and social community of writers who overlapped both in life and on the page.
I’m grateful for women who have demolished barriers and led us through. Audre Lorde, Judy Grahn and Adrienne Rich have led us through. The work of Pat Parker continues to part the sea of racism and patriarchy, and lead us through. That sea still warrants push back—and it evaporates in the presence of Natalie Diaz’s second collection, Postcolonial Love Poem, from Graywolf Press.
