The Art of the Poetic Line de James Longenbach

A fascinating and in-depth look at the various reasons (and effects) of line breaks (sorry – make that “line endings”) in poetry.

While you may not agree with all of his conclusions, it's hard to fault either his passion or thoroughness. (On a personal note, I'm always impressed when I find myself arguing against the author as I read, and then find that he addresses the very points I'm making on the next page.) Think of it as a lineation seminar that you can carry with you and revisit at will. (It's even pocket-sized!)

Possibly a little advanced for poetry novices, but well worth the effort. A good read, good arguments, and extremely good value. Recommended.… (mais)
