La parola da casa, Serena Piccoli

i am always surprised when i come across writers, as i did recently, who view e-non-being publishing as something coming in the future, as a possible but not already existing literary resource. for me, e-non-being space is already a crucial element in the experimental poetry community. blogs, e-zines, listservs, poetry web calendars, and e-mail have facilitated a wider poetic audience for experimental work and have eased lines of communication between poets flung wide around the globe. does that mean that the “experimental poetry community” is better or more inclusive now? not necessarily. does that mean that there is not a lot of poorly written poetry in e-non-being space? of course not. do i think living with e-non-being space will influence the way younger poets write and think? of course, it already is doing that.
