There is no more authoritative collection of the poetry that Eliot himself wished to preserve than this volume, published two years before his death in 1965.
Poet, dramatist, critic, and editor, T. S. Eliot was one of the defining figures of twentieth-century poetry. This edition of Collected Poems 1909-1962 includes The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock along with Four Quartets, The Waste Land, and several other poems.
Expansive and innovative, this is the fifth collection from award-winning poet Keith Flynn. A place-based abecedarium, this compilation features two poems representing each letter of the alphabet. Recalling a specific place, city, country, or region, these poems vary in form and texture and are linked to the adjacent poems by a theme, an image, or a single word. The result is a collection filled with historical vignettes and an unerring grasp of contemporary culture. An almanac with inspiring insights into the human condition, this book utilizes a musical language and illustrates the planet's new global challenges.
No one can jump as high as the very boastful kangaroo. But the littlest kangaroo challenges him to a jumping contest anyway.

Bernard Most's resourceful kangaroo hilariously illustrates one of life's basic lessons--that any problem can be overcome if only you put your mind to it.

The last book published before the poet's death, Day by Day was awarded the National Book Critics Circle Award prize for poetry in 1977 and cements Lowell's reputation as one of the great poetic voices of the century.
