The Pterodactyl's Wing: Welsh World Poetry, edited by Richard Gwyn, is an impressive anthology of thirty-six Welsh poets writing in English. The underlying premise of the anthology is that poetry reflects a state of astonishment before the world as well as the means for that astonishment. Collecting work from Welsh poets living in Wales and those who have travelled further, the poetry constructs both an outward-looking Welshness and poetry written from beyond our borders. This powerful combination incites a deeper reflection on what our poetry is and might be.
