β¦ Synopsis
Poetry. Edited by Lee Ann Brown. SONNETS, first published in 1989 as Tender Buttons Number 1, is widely considered to be of the most influential poetic works of contemporary American poetry, expanding on tradition to open new doors of the quotidian and radically innovate technical sophistication. This new, expanded 25th Anniversary edition includes a new preface by Bernadette Mayer, an editor's note by publisher Lee Ann Brown, and a selection of previously unpublished "Skinny Sonnets," hypnogogically written in reporter's notebooks, which further expand the sonnet form and method.
