The Teachers and Writers Guide to William Carlos Willliams (Teachers & Writers Guides) Gary Lenhart

This book presents 17 practical and innovative essays on using Wiliam Carlos William's work to inspire writing by students and adults. Here are not only the established classics, such as "The Red Wheelbarrow" and "this is Just to Say," but also William's neglected gems, later poems, poems that relate to the visual arts, short fiction, novels, nonfiction, and epic poem "Paterson". Never before have the full range and power of inspiration in William's writing been made available for teachers and individual writers. William Carlos Williams is not only a wonderful writer to learn from and to teach, he is also a gateway into the great modernist writing of the 20th century.
