La National Poetry Series se estableció en 1978 para reconocer y promover la excelencia en la poesía contemporánea, asegurando la publicación anual de cinco libros de poesía a través de editoriales participantes. Además, la National Poetry Series se ha asociado con Miami Book Fair para otorgar el Premio Paz de Poesía, que garantiza la publicación bilingüe de un libro de poemas escrito en español. Esta conversación presenta Trevor Ketner en [WHITE], in conversation with the judge who selected their manuscript, Forrest Gander, Twice Alive. [WHITE] is a book born from obsessions – Rauschenberg’s art and tarot – laying them over one another to tease out a critique of whiteness in the arts that reflects on how we think of whiteness in America. Here is an examination of queer bodies, Rauschenberg traveling toward, through, and away from infamous lovers in pursuit of art and selfhood, while Ketner exposes the insidiousness of whiteness and its inescapable role in American history and art. With a special introduction by Daniel Halpern, fundador de Ecco, un sello de HarperCollins, y de la National Poetry Series.
