"How lucky the young poet who discovers this wisest and most lighthearted of manuals."--James Merrill "[Hollander] put everything he knew about the structures of poetry--those fabled magic tricks--into a sort of guidebook for those starting out on the trail up Mount Parnassus, as well as for those who may already know the path but would take unusual delight in Hollander's marvelously ingenious blazes along the way. . . . There are astonishments on every page."--from the Foreword by J. D. McClatchy "This book's wit and inventive spirit, its self-describing embodiments of form, now offer the beginning poet a happy chance to discover the technician in himself."--from the Afterword by Richard Wilbur "This virtuoso work from a master, a book which is accurate and useful without ever ceasing to be funny."--Paul Fussell "What the E.

In this classic text, the distinguished poet and critic John Hollander surveys the schemes, patterns, and forms of English verse, illustrating each variation with an original and witty self-descriptive example.
