If you stand at the summit of the Appalachian Mountains, the beauty of Kentucky is evident. Rolling farmland seems to extend past the horizon. Look closer and you'll see the state's numerous coal mines that power the entire country through the gritty determination of Kentucky's coal miners. And if you take the time to listen, you'll hear the familiar clip-clop of racehorses at the world-renowned Kentucky Derby. Poetry is all around you in the Bluegrass State. And in Kentucky's Best Emerging Poets, 50 up-and-coming poets from twelve states have the chance to share their talent, words, and vision. Covering a wide array of topics ranging from love and heartbreak, family and friendship, the inherent beauty of nature, and so much more, these young talents will amaze you. Containing 1-2 poems per poet, this anthology is a compelling introduction to the great wordsmiths of tomorrow.
