Poetry 180: A Turning Back to Poetry

A dazzling new anthology of 180 contemporary poems, selected and introduced by Americaâ‚¬s Poet Laureate, Billy Collins.

Inspired by Billy Collinsâ‚¬s poem-a-day program with the Library of Congress, Poetry 180 is the perfect anthology for readers who appreciate engaging, thoughtful poems that are an immediate pleasure.

A 180-degree turn implies a turning backâ‚¬"in this case, to poetry.

Open the anthology to any page and discover a new poem to cherish, or savor all the poems, one at a time, to feel the full measure of contemporary poetryâ‚¬s vibrance and abundance.
