Worlds into Words: Understanding Modern Poems

by Diane Wood Middlebrook, Roberta Adkins (Artist)

Overview

Many of us approach poetry warily, unsure how to go about reading a poem with the proper kind of attention. Worlds into Worlds is an informal companion for poetry reading—a resource of information, observations, and interpretations.

Diane Wood Middlebrook draws on her experience as both teacher and poet to show us how to read even difficult modern poems with pleasure. She analyzes the work of a number of poets and also discusses some of her own poems, showing how the creative process unfolds.
