Book Description:

Peter Nohrnberg asks the largely unexplored question of how and why a collection of lyrics is transformed into a unified book. Nohrnberg's subject is not the lyric sequence, a recognized form, but the ordinary collections of poems. For his examples the author dwells on Yeats's The Tower and Lowell's Life Studies.
