New anthology Now and Then features 92 poets of all ages, ethnicities, languages, and experiences, from across New Zealand, who've turned their poetic attention to the rich tapestry of 'generations'.

They range from well-known poets to newcomers, including  high school students, four-year-olds, and people who speak English as a second language.

Adrienne Jansen is lead publisher at not-for-profit Wellington publisher of poetry Landing Press. She reads some of the cutest poems to Susie.
