This anthology is an invaluable tool for teachers and students of poetry and poetics at every level, and includes essays by current and former lecturers at the Warren Wilson College MFA Program for Writers—such as Marianne Boruch, Carl Dennis, Louise Glück, and Robert Hass. From discussions on Homer to Plath, to meditations on the nature of the image, this 1996 essay anthology continues to be relevant today.
