<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The Art Of series is a new line of books reinvigorating the practice of craft and criticism. Each book will be a brief, witty, and useful exploration of fiction, nonfiction, or poetry by a writer impassioned by a singular craft issue. The Art Of volumes will provide a series of sustained examinations of key but sometimes neglected aspects of creative writing by some of contemporary literature's finest practioners.</b> <p/>Poetry is the sound of language organized in lines. James Longenbach opens this provocative book with that essential statement.
