Fathers: A Collection of Poems

One hundred and eighteen of our finest American poets pay eloquent homage to their fathers and the broader concept of fatherhood in this loving anthology. In this splendid collection both daughters and sons introduce us and pay heartfelt tribute to their fathers. Whether writing of fathers who were heroes or anti-heros, defenders or pacifists, those who went away suddenly or those who reappeared after a long period of time, the poets here cast the net wide to harvest the infinite variety of the father-and-child relationship. This moving anthology includes: Raymond Carver's "The Trestle", Gwendolyn Brooks's "In Honor of David Anderson Brooks, My Father", Rita Dove's "Grape Sherbert", Robert Hayden's "Those Winter Sundays", Donald Justice's "Men at Forty", Hayden Carruth's "Words for My Daughter from the Asylum", Maxine Kumin's "My Father's Neckties", "Robert Bly's "My Father at Eighty-Fiver"

St. Martin's: Griffin

"In a country of palaces and pavement dwellers where does one look for a home? .... We are struggling for a wholeness of vision that can encompass this world of marble halls and that other world outside the gates, where streets teem with vendors and beggars, gold and hunger, children, animals, and death, where everything and nothing flies in the dusty air."

"Striking, visually elaborate, multi-themed, STILETTO is a gorgeous book. The writing is absolutely uncompromising. Focused, libertarian, intense, brooding subtleties & social themes --work we associate with profound social change."--KCRW-FM, LOS ANGELES. "Amazingly high production values. STILETTO is sexy, surreal, overwhelming. The writing, like the art, is all first-rate."--BOOKLIST. "Audacious. STILETTO exemplifies Kerouac's UNSPEAKABLE VISIONS OF THE INDIVIDUAL.

International, national & emerging literary artists with a single focus on the disinherited of today's world."--TERRA NOVA NEWS.
