Privacy Policy: The Anthology of Surveillance Poetics - Softcover

Poetry. Drones, phone taps, NSA leaks, internet tracking—the headlines confirm it—we are living in a state of constant surveillance, and the idea of "the private sphere" is no longer what it used to be. PRIVACY POLICY: THE ANTHOLOGY OF SURVEILLANCE POETICS responds to this timely and crucial issue through the voices of over fifty contemporary poets, including Robert Pinsky, Jorie Graham, John Ashbery, Rae Armantrout, Nikki Giovanni, and D.A. Powell. Nature, ethics, technology, sex, the internet—no voyeuristic stone goes unturned in this expansive exploration of the individual, information, and how we are watched.
