Description
Dorianne Laux invites you to practice poetry alongside one of its masters in this engaging book of concise craft essays and exercises. Laux demystifies the magic of language that makes great poetry, offering generative exercises to harness that magic. With wide-ranging examples from classic and contemporary poets, she explores the syllable and the line, the use of form, poetic responses to contemporary events and personal experiences, the imaginative leap, and the power of a distinct voice.
