Discovering Poetry

Discovering Poetry maintains the exceptional organization and pedagogy of Guth and Rico's Discovering Literature, but includes an even wider range and number of poems for readers to enjoy. Blending less traditional works with classic favorites, the book includes selection introductions that provide essential context and analytical tools, and follow-up questions that promote both close reading and personal response. Writing ideas and examples appear throughout, and a “writing about poetry” section at the end of each chapter supplies writing suggestions, guides, and models.
