Swedish Poetry and Poetics: A Gathering: An Editorial Note

In the following pages, we present the work of seven Swedish language poets. John Mathias, Fredrik Hertzberg, Anders Lundberg, and Jesper Olsson all worked with me to make the selections. This Swedish cluster reflects boundary 2’s ongoing commitment to presenting innovative poetry and poetics in an international context and is an extension of 99 Poets/1999: An International Poetics Symposium, a special issue of boundary 2, which I edited three years ago.
