In this book, James Longenbach develops a fresh approach to major
American poetry after modernism. Rethinking the influential
"breakthrough" narrative, the oft-told story of postmodern poets
throwing off their modernist shackles in the 1950s, Longenbach
offers a more nuanced perspective. Reading a diverse range of
poets--John Ashbery, Elizabeth Bishop, Amy Clampitt, Jorie Graham,
Richard Howard, Randall Jarrell, Robert Lowell, Robert Pinsky, and
Richard Wilbur--Longenbach reveals that American poets since mid-
century have not so much disowned their modernist past as extended
elements of modernism that other readers have suppressed or
neglected to see. In the process, Longenbach allows readers to
experience the wide variety of poetries written in our time--
without asking us to choose between them.
