Celebrate National Poetry Month by reading some poetry. Throughout the month of April I'm going to feature new poetry titles. Poetry isn't everyone's cup of tea, but as with a lot of genres, sometimes it's just a matter of finding the one that works for you. So check out some of the new and upcoming poetry books listed below and let us know if you find the one.
- Arcana: A Stephen Jonas Reader by Stephen Jonas
- Casting Deep Shade by C. D. Wright
- How to Dress a Fish by Abigail Chabitnoy
- I: New and Selected Poems by Toi Derricotte
