There are some real superstars in this book, known and unknown. Wonderful collection. I wanted it to finish with the next-to-last poet Jane Cooper - “Not a roof but a field of stars” - but understand why they went with Elizabeth Spires.
poetkoala's review against another edition

I ordered this book to feed my hunger for poetry while I was away from home and away from a library that could easily provide me with poetic sustenance. I love the little biographic bits about each of the poets that precedes the poems from them, and the poems themselves have a really good sound to them. Perfect for reading aloud (of course).

I read this anthology over a period of months. The last bit was unexpectedly satisfying... I got to "meet" Philip Booth, Hal Sirowitz, Carrie Allen McCray and others whose words either knocked me down or lifted me up.
