"This anthology presents array of poems published from the late 1950s to the present, reflecting the many voices of the American experience. Beginning with Robert Penn Warren and Elizabeth Bishop, Story Hour features a variety of poetic style. It chronicles the increased interest in the form during the seventies, the New Narrative movement that began in the eighties, and the growing audience for stories in verse in such venues as cowboy poetry gatherings, demonstrating that narrative poetry continues to be an important and vital art form. Included is an appendix that provides summaries of long narrative poems, epic poems, and novels in verse."--Jacket. No library descriptions found. |
