The poems in Global Poetry Anthology: 2011 are new, previously unpublished works from around the world, selected in a "blind" process by a team of editors from Australia, Guyana, India, Ireland, Jamaica, Malawi, Nigeria, the U.K., the U.S., and Canada. Signal Editions, the poetry series at Véhicule Press, is pleased to offer what may be the first opportunity most readers have had to read an anthology of global poetry representing the rhythms, flavours, preoccupations and tastes of a diverse, international collection of poets writing in English.
