Description
Claims for Poetry collects ideas of contemporary American poets on the subject of their art. Most contributions are essays, some are verse; some contributions are light-hearted, most are serious. These forty-three poets make widely different claims for widely different sorts of poetry—an eclectic, lively, contentious babble of voices from American poetry today.
Included are the voices of:
Robert Bly
Robert Creeley
Tess Gallagher
X. J. Kennedy
Galway Kinnell
Denise Levertov
Audre Lorde
Alicia Ostriker
Adrienne Rich
Ron Silliman
Louis Simpson
Gary Snyder
Alice Walker
Richard Wilbur
