This newly revised edition of The Art of the Almost Said updates all the information that poets who want to hone their craft need most. It is not for the poetry professional; it’s for the struggling poet, the wanting-to-get-better poet, the hoping-to-publish-someday poet. Readers of the previous edition have praised it for being “relevant,” “accessible,” “careful, welcoming, and encouraging,” “informed,” “delightful,” and “whimsical.” In addition to a thorough updating, new material has been added, including an appendix in which dozens of classic poets answer the question “Just What Is Poetry?” In short, it will help you uncover the poems you were meant to write—and find outlets so others can read them.
