Prose from Poetry Magazine

Editors' Note

Originally Published: June 03, 2013

This special issue of Poetry wouldn’t have been possible without the help of Ilya Kaminsky and the Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute, Catherine Halley and poetryfoundation.org, Jonathan Galassi and Farrar, Straus and Giroux, and the Pulitzer Center. In the spring of 2014, Farrar, Straus and Giroux will release I Am The Beggar Of The World: Landays From Contemporary Afghanistan. On July 30, 2013, The Pulitzer Center will present the reading and film screening event I am the beggar of the world at Culture Project in New York City. And finally, this summer in Chicago we will mount an exhibit at the Poetry Foundation, at 61 West Superior Street, featuring additional photographs by Seamus Murphy.
