In the poem "Asphodel, That Greeny Flower," William Carlos Williams writes: "It is difficult / to get the news from poems / yet men die miserably every day / for lack / of what is found there." Williams may have been right about that. However, Ed Werstein, in his book Communiqué Poems From The Headlines, tries to prove the converse: that you can get poetry from the news. Werstein's newest collection is sectioned like a newspaper, and the poems cover a variety of topics: national news, weather, sports.

Before William Carlos Williams was recognized as one of the most important innovators in American poetry, he commissioned a printer to publish 100 copies of Poems (1909), a small collection largely imitating the styles of the Romantics and the Victorians. This volume collects the self-published edition of Poems, Williams's foray into the world of letters, with previously unpublished notes he made after spending nearly a year in Europe rethinking poetry and how to write it. As Poems shows his first tentative steps into poetry, the notes show him as he prepares to make a giant transformation in his art. Shortly after Poems appeared, Williams went through a series of experiences that changed his life--a trip to Europe, a marriage to the sister of the woman he genuinely loved, and the establishment of his medical practice. In Europe he was introduced to a consideration of an unlikely trio: Heinrich Heine, Martin Luther, and Richard Wagner, resulting in an exposure that subsequently influenced his developing style. Williams looked back on Poems as apprentice work, calling them, "bad Keats, nothing else--oh well, bad Whitman too. But I sure loved them. . . . There is not one thing of the slightest value in the whole thin booklet--except the intent," and never republished the collection. Now that Williams's work is widely read and appreciated, his reputation secure, his development as a poet is a matter worth serious study, Poems can be seen as a point of departure, a clear record of where Williams began before his life and ideas about poetry made seismic shifts. Virginia M. Wright-Peterson's succinct introduction puts Poems in the context of his life and times, discusses the reception of the volume, his reconsideration of the poems, and what they reveal about his poetic ambitions.

A superb new collection from “a great American poet . . . still at work on his almost-song of himself” (The New York Times Book Review). In both lively prose poems and more formal verse, Philip Levine brings us news from everywhere: from Detroit, where exhausted workers try to find a decent breakfast after the late shift, and Henry Ford, “supremely bored” in his mansion, clocks in at one of his plants . . . from Spain, where a woman sings a song that rises at dawn, like the dust of ages, through an open window . . . from Andorra, where an old Communist can now supply you with anything you want—a French radio, a Cadillac, or, if you have a week, an American film star. The world of his poetry is one of questionable magic: a typist lives for her only son who will die in a war to come; three boys fish in a river while a fine industrial residue falls on their shoulders. This is a haunted world in which exotic animals travel first class, an immigrant worker in Detroit yearns for the silence of his Siberian exile, and the Western mountains “maintain that huge silence we think of as divine.” A rich, deeply felt collection from one of our master poets.

Poetry. California Interest. In an era of 'alternative facts,' where our POTUS has labeled the press the enemy of the people and coined the term 'fake news,' truth and lies are duking it out in a battle for the soul of our country. In Martin Ott's groundbreaking FAKE NEWS POEMS--2017 Year in Review, 52 Weeks, 52 headlines, 52 poems--he uses news headlines as launch pads for poems that are political, personal, and which powerfully encapsulate the themes of 2017. In this book of news poems, you'll find retired fortune cookie writers, liberated circus animals, eclipses and natural disasters, Russian meddling, global warming, Charles Manson, self-driving cars, fire and fury, alien spaceships, and robot presidents. The author uses the political landscape and breaking news as a prism to shine a light on his own personal life and the lives of all of us living in these unusual times. Part art and part political resistance, FAKE NEWS POEMS is a guide to better understand the first year of the new age of Trump. "William Carlos Williams famously wrote that 'it is difficult to get the news from poems,' but poets like Martin Ott keep proving the limits of Williams' vision. In his wildly strange FAKE NEWS POEMS, Ott chronicles the first year of the Age of Trump that a series of stranger-than-fiction poetic news stories, each of which come to speak to the wider apocalyptic rumblings of a society--and a planet--seeming to come apart at the seams. As we run toward the singularity, sex robots, edited embryos, self-driving cars, spying dolls redefine the Anthropocene, but don't stop us from swaddling guns, or cockroaches from sneaking into brains, or woodpeckers from cracking our car mirrors. We haven't yet seen what we've become. We need poets like Ott to pay attention to the way in which the future is staring us in the face, and waiting for us to wake up." --Philip Metres, Author of Sand Opera
