Tweeting our Greatest Hits for #NPM16

In honor of National Poetry Month, Words Without Borders will be tweeting some of the best worldwide poetry in translation from our archives, selected by our editorial director Susan Harris. We begin with Burundian poet Ketty Nivyabandi's “Izina.” In the coming weeks, look out for work from Mazen Maarouf, Liu Xia, Tomasz Rózycki, and many more. Follow us on Twitter at @wwborders (and #NPM16) for a daily dose of excellent international poetry—we hope that you’ll discover some gems and share your favorites!
