Publisher's Synopsis

How can we tell good poetry from bad? To illustrate why these 101 poems, many of them well-loved classics, are so remarkable, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet W.D. Snodgrass rewrites them - wrong. De/Composition presents these rewrites next to the originals - by poets from William Shakespeare to William Stafford.
