Publisher's Synopsis
In honor of over 40 years of publishing fine poetry collections, we celebrate our poets with this inspirational anthology! With a poem from each of our authors, the book also invites the reader to join in the conversation: a fresh writing prompt and handy blank page follow every selection. Perfect for the creative writing classroom and the accomplished poet alike, Word for Word shows the astonishing range of the last half-century of poetry in America. Poets represented include Fred Marchant, Frannie Lindsay, Chris Bursk, Enid Shomer, Cheryl Clarke, and many more.
