A FIELD Guide to Contemporary Poetry and Poetics by David Walker

One of the hallmarks of FIELD magazine has always been its attention to what poets have to say about poetry. Many of these essays--by William Stafford, Denise Levertov, Gary Snyder, Adrienne Rich, Donald Hall, Robert Bly, and Sandra McPherson, among others--have become classics. This revised and expanded collection of essays from the magazine provides a rich and stimulating perspective on the state of contemporary poetry, as seen through the eyes of the poets themselves.
STUART FRIEBERT has published 11 books of poems in English and German; he is widely known as the co-editor of Oberlin College Press: Field; and other collections. He has taught at Oberlin College since 1961, and directs the Oberlin Writing Program. He has also won a NEA Creative Writing Fellowship.
