Moving Poetry

"Moving Poetry is an ambitious and heartening collection, sometimes funny, sometimes melancholy, invariably expert. It proves once again the value of encouraging young people to stretch their imaginations, and proves how great is the benefit to us all. Andrew Motion, Professor of Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia, Poet Laureate of Great Britain From a uniquely vibrant place, where ancient cultures coincide with one another and with our planet's future, comes this collection of poems: energetic, surprising, direct, subtle -- in a word, moving. The volume brings together the fundamental art of poetry and the transforming spirit of youth. Robert Pinsky, Professor of English at Boston University, Poet Laureate of the United States 1997-2000
