Questions about angels: poems - Billy Collins

Billy Collins has emerged as the most beloved American poet since Robert Frost, garnering critical acclaim and broad popular appeal.

Annie Proulx admits, I have never before felt possessive about a poet, but I am fiercely glad that Billy Collins is ours.

This special, limited edition celebrates Billy Collins's years as U.

Poet Laureate.

Questions About Angels --one of the books that helped establish and secure his reputation and popularity during the 1990s--is remarkable for its wry, inquisitive voice and its sheer imaginative range.

Edward Hirsch selected this classic book for the National Poetry Series, and each of Collins's poems-from his meditation on forgetfulness to his musings on the behavior of angels-is an exploration of imaginative possibilities.

Whether reading him for the first time or the fiftieth, this collector's edition is a must-have for anyone interested in the poet the New York Times calls simply the real thing.
