Since 1936, the New Directions in Prose and Poetry anthologies have served as vehicles for the presentation of new and variant trends in world literature. The twenty-eighth number in the series, which draws on authors from five different countries places a special emphasis on prose--narrative, dramatic, and impressionistic; a relatively small but choice selection of poetry is included as well.
