Poetry. M.L.Liebler's NEW & SELECTED POEMS is American poetry's newest entry in the ongoing quest to commit America to the Word. There is enough here to let us know where we are. Liebler is a true historian of the era (our own) that he chronicles. Liebler's stubbornness of intent and his tremendous on-pointedness in relentless defense of the things of the heart make this a very welcome volume -- Richard Tillinghast.
