The Virtuosity and exuberance found in National Book Award winner Sherman Alexie's own work characterizes his selections for The Best American Poetry-2015. Alexie arrived in force with his collection of poems The Business of Fancydancing in 1992, and here he has chosen poems that are without exception arresting and bold. The 2015 edition showcases some of our leading luminaries and introduces a number of outstanding younger poets. Series editor David Lehman's foreword assessing the state of the art kicks off the book, followed by an essay in which Alexie turns the conventional introduction on its head. Book jacket.
