Books by Professor John Hollander
Classic Technical Book for Poets and Writers
This is a great book for poets or for any writer. who wants to improve their skills. It's very well written, and a joy to read, as it is extremely clear and to the point. I like to carry it around with me so I can read bits of it when I am in transit. It helps me understand the poetry of others while helping me consider new possibilities in my own work.
