In Donald Hall's compelling new collection of essays on the state
of contemporary poetry, he likens much of what passes for poetry
today to the product of an assembly line -- the McPoem. The
McPoem may satisfy the desire for fame, the ambition for
publication. But real ambition for the poet, says Hall, lies
in the sometimes painful, always time-consuming perfection of the
poem itself. You may not agree with Hall, but you cannot
afford to ignore him.
