Poems Talking to Poems: Setting Your Poetry Manuscript Apart

by Jeffrey Levine & Kristina Marie Darling, eds.

$19.95

“By its necessities and nature, the workshop culture that so powerfully inflects contemporary poetry offers but little attention to the journey from the poem to the Book, from the instance to the Substance of a poet’s vision. The essays gathered in Poems Talking to Poems consider that journey with prismatic attentions. Practical and idealistic, skeptical and enthusiastic by turns, the anthology, in all its voices, affirms the future of the art by an insistence upon the individual poet’s responsibility to the shaping of that future. Long overdue, this book is surely welcome.”
