And here, for the first time, is an anthology of poems from the show, chosen by the narrator for their wit, their frankness, their passion, their 'utter clarity in the face of everything else a person has to deal with at 7 a.m.' Good Poems includes poems about lovers, children, failure, everyday life, death, and transcendence. It features the work of classic poets, such as Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, and Robert Frost, as well as the work of contemporary greats such as Howard Nemerov, Charles Bukowski, Donald Hall, Billy Collins, Robert Bly, and Sharon Olds.
