The Shape of Things : Six New American Poets Paperback

Edited by Dick Davis

Paperback

Description

'All of the poets represented here are interested in formal metre, what it does and what can be done with it; the pleasure principle is strong in their work (this despite some very bleak, desolate, and even at times horrific subject matter) - Their poems are full of the world, and the ways that it resists our hopes and expectations; they are among the most unsolipsistic contemporary poets I'm aware of.

Their technique turns their attention outward, not inward, despite the fact that a distinctive inwardness is easily discernible in the work of all of them.' - from the Introduction.
