The Best of Kore Press 2012 Poetry

Kore Press supports the voices of women, a revolutionary act even today, and does so with the utmost craftsmanship. They slay dragons with beauty and skill. -Niki Herd

It is true that we are multitudes, and within this collection, you will hear the many songs and landscapes that help build the world of contemporary poetry. This is an important collection because it demands that we, as female writers, not conform, rather, we must only write the things that are in us to be written. -Natalie Diaz

Twenty two years ago two super women decided to found a press with a vision to publish and distribute excellent literary and artistic work by a diversity of women. Hold this anthology in your hands. Consider it like all the stars. -Joni Wallace

Writing Out of the Darkness

The story behind this collection of poems is built around the creation of a community of young immigrants from different parts of the world, who found in their art a renewed love of life and the courage to liberate themselves from oppression. In sharing their struggles, journeys and dream, the Owl and Panther poets inspire and give us hope that indeed another world is possible. -Jorge Cabrera, former therapist with the Hopi Foundation, Center for the Resolution and Prevention of Violence.

Behold the lives of refugee children who have encountered so much violence, brutality and death, and made it to the other side... of love, compassion, understanding and self-empowerment
. -Robert W. Robin Yale University School of Medicine
