Best American Poetry 2006

Rather than have my regular writing workshop class with Paul Violi next week, he told us to meet him at New School University to attend a reading. Now, I've been posting Billy Collins' animated poems on this blog and recently I bought a couple of books by David Lehman, so imagine my surprise when I learnt that both Lehman (the series editor) and Collins (this year's guest editor) will be on hand to introduce The Best American Poetry book launch.
