In time for the holiday season, a beautiful paperback edition of
Penguin's landmark poetry anthology
Rita Dove, Pulitzer Prize winner and former Poet Laureate of the
United States, introduces readers to the most significant and
compelling poems of the past hundred years in "The Penguin
Anthology of Twentieth-Century American Poetry." Now available in
paperback, this indispensable volume represents the full spectrum
of aesthetic sensibilities--with varying styles, voices, themes,
and cultures--while balancing important poems with vital periods of
each poet. Featuring earlier works by Robert Frost, James Weldon
Johnson, and Wallace Stevens along with examples from the new
generation of critically acclaimed poets, including A. E.
Stallings, Terrance Hayes, and Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey,
Dove's selections paint a dynamic and cohesive portrait of modern
American poetry.
