Twenty-eight distinguished contemporary American poets provide a
multifaceted view of the creative process. Each poet has
contributed a poem and chosen several poems by other poets that
have influenced it. In an essay, each poet then describes how those
influences have led to a sense of poetic mastery.

"Anyone interested in how language calls to language, and heart
to heart, will find these pages irresistible." --"The Philadelphia
Inquirer"
"In this quirky, resonant, and necessary book, generously edited
by Stephen Berg, a wide range of American poets at all stages of
their writing lives offer their poems and choose their precursors,
meditating with great humility and insight on the dual mysteries of
influence and mastery, on the reading that fosters writing, on the
shimmering nobility of poetry itself." --Edward Hirsch, Author of
"How to Read a Poem"
