Star Dust
Poems
Frank Bidart
Farrar, Straus and Giroux Paperbacks
"Just as art has impelled the poet through the remaking of his self, so Bidart has remade the tradition of poetry in English.
Star Dust
is not merely 'about' the desire to create: It exists as a superb embodiment of that urge . . . No living poet writes with Bidart's fusion of emotional ferocity and formal exactitude, of grand ambition and creaturely attentiveness. This is his strongest book."—

Watching the Spring Festival
Poems
Frank Bidart
Farrar, Straus and Giroux Paperbacks
“Full of rage even when most melancholy or sweet, [Bidart’s] voice leaps off the page toward his subjects, and toward the reader . . . Grand poetic ambition, at its best, can make us feel that that which challenges the glory-seeking poet also challenges the ordinary life. In lucid moments of this wonderful book, Bidart accomplishes this feat.”

Edgar Allan Poe & The Juke-Box
Uncollected Poems, Drafts, and Fragments
Elizabeth Bishop; Edited and Annotated by Alice Quinn
Farrar, Straus and Giroux Paperbacks
"You are living in a world created by Elizabeth Bishop . . . she left behind a body of work that teaches us, as Italo Calvino once said of literature generally, 'a method subtle and flexible enough to be the same thing as an absence of any method whatever.' The publication of
Edgar Allan Poe & the Juke-Box
, which gathers for the first time Bishop's unpublished material, isn't just a significant event in our poetry; it's part of a continuing alteration in the scale of American life . . . Quinn's notes throughout are superb . . . This is the devoted editing this material needed and deserved."—

The Curved Planks
Poems
Yves Bonnefoy; Translated from the French by Hoyt Rogers; Foreword by Richard Howard
Farrar, Straus and Giroux Paperbacks
"Yves Bonnefoy represents contemporary French poetry at its classic best: sober and yet soaring, full of invocation and desire: 'Let this world endure . . . Let this world remain.' This volume—thanks to Hoyt Rogers, Richard Howard, and the input of Bonnefoy himself—is a splendid celebration of the depths of this particular craft, whose curved planks of its prow are shaped like a mind."—
