History of the Invitation : New and Selected

Poetry. The wit, power and elegance of Towle's poetry is brought together at last in one definitive volume. One of the clear, authentic voices of American poetry -- Kenneth Koch. Meditative, erudite, stunning with ease and quirky sanity...a phenomenal measure of a poet's nearly four decades -- Anne Waldman. Belongs in every library of poetry, possibly on its own shelf -- Billy Collins.
