The NPF conference on The Poetry of the 1970s, held on the UMaine campus June 11-15, 2008, hosted more than 200 registered participants from all over the US and the world. Keynote poets included Bruce Andrews, Rae Armantrout, Nicole Brossard, Clark Coolidge, Jayne Cortez, Ann Lauterbach, Bernadette Mayer, Tom Raworth, and Fred Wah.

New NPF titles by Joanne Kyger and Helen Adam, as well as the latest installment in our Life & Works series, devoted to Ronald Johnson, are enjoying a warm response with readers and reviewers.

Once again, welcome, and enjoy!
