The Colosseum Book of Contemporary Narrative Verse William B. Hanford Walter Barnard Hill (Georgia)Narrative verse, or poems that tell a story, has existed for millennia, yet the mode of writing has been neglected by literary publishers, editors, and critics in our own time. This anthology reestablishes the vital relationship of narrative verse to a contemporary readership of poetry. It presents a wide range of specimens from twenty eight poets who were born since World War II and who published their narrative poems over the past fifty years.
