In a Different Light

More about the book

Exploring profound themes such as death, doubt, and alienation, this anthology features the work of fourteen Dutch poets, many of whom are celebrated on the continent but lesser-known in the English-speaking world. The poetry, characterized by a conversational tone and wry humor, uniquely focuses on language itself rather than nature or politics. Edited by Robert Minhinnick and Rob Schouten, this collection serves as an engaging introduction to the distinct qualities of Dutch poetry, showcasing a diverse range of voices and styles.
