Product Description
From Amazon
Get ready to hang out! This unique anthology of poems takes you to the hot and not-so-hot spots of American nightlife, and what a night out it is! The collection showcases 125 notable contemporary poets, including Raymond Carver, Galway Kinnell, Susan Mitchell, Joy Harjo, and many more. From hamburger hells to heavenly hotels, weary waitresses to blurry bar hounds, Night Out contains the dreams and nightmares of those who find themselves in a very real twilight zone.
Book Description
An anthology of poetry containing the work of 125 noted American poets evokes the nightspots, hotels, bars, greasy spoons, and similar refuges from the demands of daily life and the feelings, thoughts, and sensations they bring out in us. Original. IP.

Gritty and Real,
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Out: Poems about Hotels, Motels, Restaurants, and Bars (Paperback)
The title of the anthology is what initially captured my attention. Although the theme may not be typical of an anthology, the poetry is wonderful. Yet, what I loved the most about this collection is the way each poem reflects a moment whether self-reflective, angry, or lonely clearly and succinctly without any exaggerations. I definitely suggest this book to those who like poetry that is beautiful through its honesty and simplicity.
