The Art Of series is a new line of books reinvigorating the
practice of craft and criticism. Each book will be a brief, witty,
and useful exploration of fiction, nonfiction, or poetry by a
writer impassioned by a singular craft issue. The Art Of volumes
will provide a series of sustained examinations of key but
sometimes neglected aspects of creative writing by some of
contemporary literature' s finest practioners. " Poetry is the
sound of language organized in lines." James Longenbach opens this
provocative book with that essential statement. Through a range of
examples-- from Shakespeare and Milton to Ashbery and Glu ck--
Longenbach describes the function of line in metered, rhymed,
syllabic, and free-verse poetry. "The Art of the Poetic Line "is a
vital new resource by one of America' s most important critics and
most engaging poets.
