The Age of Poetry…back again?
An interesting article chronicling the revival of interest in poetry.
I know I keep coming back to this but perhaps poets could test the market for poetry using the print-on-demand model. Now available in India, this model will allow poets to write their poetry and put their books up for sale, without having to print a single copy. The books are printed only when the order is placed. After gauging the demand for the book, they can always then go and have their books published by a publishing house having a national reach.
