Afterlives of the New York School of Poets

This anthology showcases poems by writers who honor the virtues of the original New York School poets: Frank O’Hara, John Ashbery, Kenneth Koch and James Schuyler. The poems, the "New York School diaspora," are driven by the chaos of reality and the belief that, to paraphrase Frank O’Hara, life is too important to strangle with seriousness.
