More Than Soil, More Than Sky: The Modesto Poets

More Than Soil, More Than Sky: The Modesto Poets celebrates the poetry of a place seen more often as a cultural backwater than as a region hugely rich in sound, words, and imagery. Accompanied by stunning portraits of each poet, More Than Soil, More Than Sky gathers the diverse voices, styles, and subject matter that come from poets living in and around one small town in the heart of California's Great Central Valley. This anthology documents not only this moment in a vibrant and exciting poetry community, but also stakes a claim in the larger poetry world, making clear that Modesto is more than soil, more than sky. It is an up-and-coming force in the poetry world.
