JAAM Magazine, Issue No. 14 (October 2000):
In Our Own Words A Generation Defining Itself, Vol. 2, Editor Marlow Peerse Weaver, MWE Enterprises, $US10.95.
This is the second in a continuing series of anthologies representing Generation X poetry. All contributions have been selected from over 11,400 submissions via the Internet and the book is distributed worldwide. Though still in its early stages the project could become a major anthology in its own right if the quality of poets contributing continues to grow with each edition. New Zealand poets included are Helen Rickerby, Mark Pirie and Yvonne Eve Walus (who was also published in JAAM 11). The poetry is varied and lively, from a wide range of cultural and political backgrounds and the book is contributed to from all over the world. This series could become historically valuable in years to come.
