  • Poetry is a regular feature on Garrison Keillor's NPR radio show A Prairie Home Companion, but for the last five years, it has formed the core of The Writer's Almanac, a daily, five-minute," 7 a.m. show on which Keillor reads a poem. Good Poems selects 350 pieces of verse from among the thousands that have been read on the Almanac for """"Stickiness"," memorability.... You hear it and a day later some of it is still there in the brainpan."""" Divided by subject-beginning with """"O Lord"," moving through """"Day's Work"," """"Sons and Daughters"""" and through to """"The End"""" and """"The Resurrection""""-the book includes work by writers past (Burns", Dickinson, Bishop, Williams, Shakespeare) and present: Robert Hass, Lisel Mueller, Tom Disch, among many others. Keillor will do a four-city tour in support of the book, and of the paperback release of his Lake Wobegon Summer 1956. (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
