The Best American Poetry 2019 by David Lehman, Major Jackson

adventurous emotional funny informative lighthearted slow-paced

4.5

It's the first Best American Poetry collection I've read, but I really enjoyed it. We referenced this collection in my creative writing class and I found a lot of diversity in it- lighthearted poems, emotional poems. Different styles, different backgrounds of poets. And I love the author's commentary at the end. I'm just a poetry nerd. I liked the diverse set of poems and authors I got to read. It's helped me learn my own writing style.
