On the Mesa: An Anthology of Bolinas Writing

This is a gathering of poets and writers and artists living in or around the mesa in Bolinas, California. Not so much a school of poets as a meeting of those who happen to be at this geographical location at this point in wobbly time, several divergent movements in American poetry of the past 20 years (Black Mountain, San Francisco Beat, ''New York School'' of poets) have come together with new Western and mystic elements at the unpaved crossroads of Bolinas.
