An Excellent Collection of Essays on Modern PoeticsMay 5, 1999 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
"Working Time" is an exceptional collection of essays on modern poetics from one of America's best young poets. Part of the University of Michigan's renowned series (Poets on Poetry), this book sheds light on the politics of poetry, the role of the poet in society, and the challenges confronting American poetry at the turn of the century. Her understanding of the technical elements of free verse and her ability to convey ideas lucidly and without pretense make this an outstanding collection for both the serious poet and fan alike.
