American Poetry At Large.

This wonderful book of poems brings together over three decades of poems by one of America's most powerful and dramatic poets, W.D. Snodgrass. I had the opportunity to meet Snodgrass a few years ago and the reading he gave was full of humor, depth, and vitality. Included in this volume or some poems from his Pulitzer Prize winning book, HEART'S NEEDLE, a collection of poems published in various periodicals, and the dramatic poems about Hitler's Third Reich. I especially enjoyed the poem's from "The Fuehrer Bunker". A delightful book to give to anyone who loves good American poetry.
