Authored by Thomas Fink, the book delves into the art of reading poetry, exploring how learners can navigate and even relish the challenging aspects of this literary form.

Through diverse readings of selected poems, the book addresses the influence of various theoretical paradigms, ranging from ecological, psychological, feminist, and queer theory to deconstructive, postcolonial, and surface reading orientations. Instructors receive practical guidance through these poems, poets, and modes of reading, empowering them to provide learners with raw material to reach their own nuanced interpretations and enhance their emotional, aesthetic, and intellectual acumen.
By engaging with the rich and complex world of poetry, students are encouraged to develop a deeper understanding of themselves, others, and the world around them.
