Publisher's Synopsis
This multilingualcollection of poets from many countries reflects planetary resistancetothe misery that global capitalism is relentlessly inflicting upon the peoples of the world. Anything less than an international response would not reflect the enormity of our solidarity as poets. These poemsspeak urgently of the internationalclassstruggle for revolution and social justice as the very essence of truth and beauty, the struggle to topple the open fascistic dimensions rising today. The poets in this anthology embody an historical memory as vast as our solidarity, as deep as all the struggles of the past that sought to liberate humanityfrom the scourges of war, racism, sexism, plunder of the environment, of capitalism'sreligion of money. Toward this same goal of overthrowing capitalism we say, with the poetsin this anthology: Not one step back!
