After publishing five books of poetry and teaching creative writing for more than twenty-five years, Mayes is no stranger to the subject. In The Discovery of Poetry, an accessible &#8220;field guide&#8221; to reading and writing poetry, she shares her passion with readers. Beginning with basic terminology and techniques, from texture and sound to rhyme and repetition, Mayes shows how focusing on one aspect of a poem can help you to better understand, appreciate, and enjoy the reading and writing experience. In addition to many creative and helpful composition ideas, following each lyrical and lively discussion is a thoughtful selection of poems. With its wonderful anthology from Shakespeare to Jamaica Kinkaid, The Discovery of Poetry is an insightful, invaluable guide to what Mayes calls &#8220;the natural pleasures of language-a happiness we were born to have.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Harper Perennial (November 9, 2001) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 512 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 0156007622 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-0156007627 <br \/> Reading age                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 14 years and up <br \/> Lexile measure                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 990L <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 1.1 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5.2 x 1.7 x 7.9 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-medium\">\n<h3 class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the writing poetic and the book helpful in explaining the fundamentals of writing poetry.
