Against Forgetting by Carolyn Forche
This landmark anthology takes its impulse from the words of Bertolt Brecht: In the dark times, will there be singing? /Yes, there will be singing./About the dark times. Bearing witness to extremity--whether of war, torture, exile, or repression--this volume encompasses more than 140 poets from five continents, a chorus of voices from dark times, giving testimony to the poetic imagination seared by the fire of human suffering.
She is also the editor of Against Forgetting: Twentieth-Century Poetry of Testimony, an anthology. She was recently honored in Stockholm with the Edita and Ira Morris Hiroshima Foundation Prize for Peace and Culture. Her spouse and son live in Maryland with her.
