Summary:
"The Collected Poems of Anselm Hollo gathers over five decades of the multihyphenate poet's work into one elegant volume. All of Hollo's trademark humor, wisdom, and charm is on display here for students and fans of contemporary poetry. Warm, insightful, and delightfully observant, this comprehensive collection from the author of over forty books serves as a reminder that poetry isn't just an aspiration or avocation, but a way of life"-- Provided by publisher.
