The body electric

Stephen Berg, Arthur Vogelsang

"Since its founding in 1972, The American Poetry Review has published new work by the widest range of America's finest poets. Here is the best of APR in a selection by its three editors. APR has become a central forum in American literature and has contributed to making poetry a part of the mainstream culture without compromising its art. Among the 180 poets included in this collection are Robert Bly, John Berryman, Lucille Clifton, Robert Creely, Carolyn Forche, Allen Ginsberg, Barbara Guest, Yusef Komuyakaa, Denise Levertov, Robert Lowell, W. S. Merwin, Frank O'Hara, Charles Olson, Sylvia Plath, Adrienne Rich, and Derek Walcott, plus a generous array of new poets from recent years. The breadth and innovation of American poetry as well as the shifting styles and tastes of over a quarter of a century are represented in this volume."--BOOK JACKET.
