Rating:
Summary: This is the best guide to contemporary poetics available.
Review: This collection of essays by some of our best contemporary poets--including Donald Hall, Denise Levertov, Galway Kinnell, and Charles Wright--is quite simply the best guide to postmodern poetics available. The chapters on the creative process and the poetic line are especially useful, providing excellent resources for instructors and students of poetry workshops.
