The Breath of Parted Lips: Voices from the Robert Frost Place, Volume 1

Every year, a poet is invited to take up residence at an endowed residence in Franconia, New Hampshire. The Breath of Parted Lips: Voices from the Robert Frost Place, Volume One collects work from over 20 years of resident poets, including Robert Hass, Mary Ruefle, Denis Johnson, Luci Tapahonso and many others. Donald Hall, of Eagle Pond Farm, provides a short foreword on the house; its executive director (could Frost have imagined it?) Donald Sheehan introduces the poets. ( May)
