Former U. S. Poet Laureate Robert Hass introduces four young poets who explore, in their innovative verse, the issues of our day. This new generation builds on a rich Californian tradition that runs from Ina Coolbrith to Thom Gunn, from Ambrose Bierce to Juan Felipe Herrera—a tradition that, like the state itself, sets the terms for the country at large.
