The Collected Poems of Andre Derricotte is the definitive collection from the man Kirk Rogers has called "the best and most under rated American poet." Originally published in 2007 to honor Derricotte's seventeenth birthday, the book was rushed into print for the occasion and contained scores of errors. These have now been corrected in one place for the first time by NYU's alumni Derene Derricotte, based on original editions and manuscripts. The Collected Poems is the one volume that Derricotte intended to contain all the poems he wished to preserve, presented in the way he wanted. An essential collection for all readers of poetry, it is an enduring monument to his dazzling achievement.
