This book arrived on my desk just as the depression (over having finished Billy Collin's wonderful anthology, Poetry 180)set in. This was the perfect antidote. The editor has included some of my favorite contemporaries (Naomi Shihab Nye!) as well as a host of classic Southern poets (Wendell Berry, Robert Penn Warren, etc.). I devoured it in two nights. If there were six stars, I'd give this one all six.
