Book Description
In this book you will find short stories of varying lengths as well as story poems and regular and lyrical poetry. Stories in this anthology include (1) a house that has a very subtle (or maybe not so subtle) way of eliminating its owners, (2) the results of an alien invasion from the viewpoint of one of the aliens, (3) a morning in the life of a taxi driver set approximately two thousand years in the future on the heavily industrialized Planet of Mulgroon, (4) a slightly altered version of the familiar children's fairy tale entitled "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" that introduces you to baby bear's three older siblings - Bernice, Cynthia, and Franklin as well as two other very short stories. This anthology also contains three different styles of poetry: Story Poems - poetry that tells a story, of course; Poetry - the regular kind - mostly non-rhyming; and Lyrical Poetry, or poetry that can be set to music and sung. Themes range from the very down-to-earth to fanciful to love as well as to science-fiction/fantasy and futuristic related themes.

Book Description
Among the poets new to this edition are such leading names as Americans Robert Pinsky, Louise Erdrich and Louise Glück; Britons James Fenton and Carol Ann Duffy; and Canadians Anne Carson, Robert Bringhurst, and Christian Bök. A number of names who may be new to many readers of poetry are also included among them: Ohioan Debra Allbery, Vancouverite Elise Partridge, and the Cree poet Connie Fife; as with the first edition, the editors have endeavored to include much that is fresh as well as much that is familiar. There are many additions to the selections from poets who appeared in the first edition including selections from the recent work of Leonard Cohen, Les Murray, and Margaret Atwood. As before, the anthology includes work from English-language poets throughout the world from India, Africa, and the Caribbean as well as from Britain, North America, and Australia. Although the selections from the work of poets of earlier eras are largely unchanged from the first edition, there have been some changes; among poems added for this edition are Milton’s L’Allegro and Il Penseroso, Bradstreet’s “Employment,” Dickinson’s “I cannot live without You,” Frost’s “Once by the Pacific,” and Auden’s “Funeral Blues.” As before, the text emphasizes work of the past century; poems from 1900 or later take up more than half of the anthology’s pages. In its first edition The Broadview Anthology of Poetry included biographical information about the poets at the back of the anthology; for the new edition, biographical material appears in a headnote to each poet. Two other features are also new to this edition: the date of first publication is appended after each poem, and line numbering is used throughout. The numbers have been kept unobtrusive, however; as with the first edition, the designers have endeavored to give a clean look to the pages of the anthology. A substantial section on prosody, figures of speech, and so on is included as an appendix.
