Inspired by Billy Collins's poem-a-day program with the Library of Congress, the original Poetry 180: A Turning Back to Poetry was a gathering of clear, contemporary poems aimed at a wide audience. In 180 More, Collins continues his ambitious mission of exposing readers of all ages to the best of today's poetry. Here are another 180 hospitable, engaging, reader-friendly poems, which offer surprises and delights as well as a wide range of literary voices-comic, melancholy, reflective, irreverent. If poetry is the original travel literature, this anthology contains 180 vehicles ready to carry you away to unexpected places.Collins, Billy is the author of '180 More Extraordinary Poems For Every Day', published 2005 under ISBN 9780812972962 and ISBN 0812972961.
