The Hatred of Poetry
The Hatred of Poetry
Synopsis
Poetry is often hated, even by poets themselves. Ben Lerner explores this paradox in "The Hatred of Poetry," arguing that our discomfort with the art form is precisely what makes it relevant. Through insightful readings of poets and critics, Lerner defends poetry by examining its most ardent detractors and its most passionate practitioners, seeking the core of its enduring, if impossible, appeal.
