There's a marvelous revival of poetry underway in Rutherford, NJ, home of the influential American poet William Carlos Williams. A Symposium on WIlliams has led to a poetry cooperative, several websites, two ongoing workshops, and a monthly reading. The RUTHERFORD RED WHEELBARROW POETS ANTHOLOGY is the living proof of the great vortex of poetic energy that has been created. The book features an unpublished poem by WIlliams and also poets like JOHN BARRALE, CELINE BEAULIEU, SONDRA SINGER BEAULIEU, GEORGE DE GREGORIO, MARK FOGARTY, JIM KLEIN, LOREN KLEINMAN, ZORIDA MOHAMMAD, DEBORAH SCHANTZ, CLAUDIA SEREA and many more!

In 1909, William Carlos Williams published his first book of poetry in Rutherford, NJ and started the modernist revolution. In 2009, that tradition is continued by the release of the second Rutherford Red Wheelbarrow, a literary journal featuring the best of New Jersey and New York poets. There's an unpublished poem by Williams, several essays on the poet, and rare items from the Rutherford Public Library's Williams Collection.

And they kick some ass too!

A remarkable collection of 42 poets connected with the Rutherford, NJ poetry revival gives voice to memorable poetry and essays in the third edition of The Rutherford Red Wheelbarrow. Published by the Red Wheelbarrow Poets, this third annual edition of the literary journal celebrates the epic in the local and poetic voices in the American grain that so inspired William Carlos Williams, Rutherford's hometown doctor and poet, whose liberation of the voice of the common man (and woman) in poetry was a true revolution in words during the last century.--The Red Wheelbarrow Poets.

Back for more! The Red Wheelbarrow Poets Writing Workshop has been cranking out great poetry for the past ten years, and we've started to collect it each year.

We have 16 poets and more than 50 poems in these pages, starting with an Ode to Beer and ending with a retrospective of a US Navy disaster in 1967. In between, there's everything else. POW!

It's hard to believe, but it has been ten years for The Red Wheelbarrow, the Rutherford, NJ anthology that has done so much to boost the poetry of the tri-state region and create a nexus of poetic energy around the birthplace of famed poet Dr. William Carlos Williams. This is our biggest and best book to date, bursting with poetry, prose and artwork and epitomizing Williams' beliefs that a poem is a machine made of words and the epic is the local fully realized.Since Williams was a baby doctor we often get asked if we were delivered by Dr. Williams. Our answer? Not yet, but we're getting there!
