This rewarding volume provides answers from Roxane Gay, Roger Ebert, Lili Taylor, Alfred Molina, Aleksandar Hemon, and forty-five more.<\/p>\n<p>Who reads poetry? We know that poets do, but what about the rest of us? When and why do we turn to verse? Seeking the answer, Poetry magazine since 2005 has published a column called \u201cThe View From Here,\u201d which has invited readers from outside the world of poetry to describe what has drawn them to poetry. Over the years, contributors have included philosophers, journalists, musicians, and artists, as well as doctors and soldiers, an ironworker, an anthropologist, and an economist. This collection brings together fifty compelling pieces, in turns surprising, provocative, touching, and funny.<\/p>\n<p>Anthropologist Helen Fisher turns to poetry while researching the effects of love on the brain: \u201cAs other anthropologists have studied fossils, arrowheads, or pot shards to understand human thought, I studied poetry\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. I wasn\u2019t disappointed: everywhere poets have described the emotional fallout produced by the brain\u2019s eruptions.\u201d The rapper Rhymefest attests to the self-actualizing power of poems: \u201cWords can create worlds, and I\u2019ve discovered that poetry can not only be read but also lived out. My life is a poem.\u201d Musician Neko Case calls poetry \u201ca delicate, pretty lady with a candy exoskeleton on the outside of her crepe-paper dress.\u201d And music critic Alex Ross tells us that he keeps a paperback of The Palm at the End of the Mind by Wallace Stevens on his desk next to other, more utilitarian books like a German dictionary, a King James Bible, and a Mac troubleshooting manual. Contributors also include Ai Weiwei, Christopher Hitchens, Kay Redfield Jamison, Lynda Barry, and more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe diversity of the authors results in an exceptionally broad range of topics and perspectives\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. Many of the contributors also tell intimate stories about poetry\u2019s place in their personal lives. Sasaki and Share have chosen these pieces well.\u201d \u2014Publishers Weekly<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFunny, moving and inspiring.\u201d \u2014The Australian    <\/p>\n<p> ASIN                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 B075P9RYP3 <br \/> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 The University of Chicago Press; Illustrated edition (October 20, 2017) <br \/> Publication date                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 October 20, 2017 <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> File size                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 633 KB <br \/> Text-to-Speech                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Enabled <br \/> Screen Reader                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Supported <br \/> Enhanced typesetting                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Enabled <br \/> X-Ray                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Not Enabled <br \/> Word Wise                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Enabled <br \/> Print length                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 209 pages <\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Who reads poetry\u2014and why?
