Description
Come full circle with 180 new, exciting poems selected and introduced by Billy Collins.Inspired by Billy Collins’s poem-a-day program for American high schools that he began through the Library of Congress, the original Poetry 180: A Turning Back to Poetry was a gathering of clear, contemporary poems aimed at a wide audience. In 180 More, Collins continues his ambitious mission of exposing readers of all ages to the best of today’s poetry. Here are another 180 hospitable, engaging, reader-friendly poems, offering surprise and delight in a wide range of literary voices–comic, melancholy, reflective, irreverent. If poetry is the original travel literature, this anthology contains 180 vehicles ready to carry you away to unexpected places.With poems byRobert BlyCarol Ann DuffyEamon GrennanMark Halliday Jane Kenyon David KirbyThomas LuxDonna Masini W.
