Bum Rush the Page is a groundbreaking collection, capturing the best new work from the poets who have brought fresh energy, life, and relevance to American poetry.

""Here is a democratic orchestration of voices and visions, poets of all ages, ethnicities, and geographic locations coming together to create a dialogue and to jam-not slam.

This is our mouth on paper, our hearts on our sleeves, our refusal to shut up and swallow our silence.

These poems are tough, honest, astute, perceptive, lyrical, blunt, sad, funny, heartbreaking, and true.

They shout, they curse, they whisper, and sing.

But most of all, they tell it like it is.""

Reviews for Bum Rush the Page: A Def Poetry Jam

From the reviews: <p> Asiaa (TM)s New Institutional Architecture (ANIA) is a refreshing analysis of the proliferation of Asian institutions in both the economic and security issue areas. a ] the book provides insight into how the tangle of bilateral and minilateral efforts in trade, finance, and security might eventually culminate in more coherent overarching institutions. In doing so, the book proves to be must reading for scholars and policymakers who have an interest in security and economic trends in Asia. (Michelle Haq, BASC Newsletter, Fall, 2007)
