Description:
x, 261 p. : ill. ; 21 cm.
Summary:
A timeless collection of "found" poetry -- real quotes formatted as verse for hilarious and surprising effect by Kathryn and Ross Petras. Turning these quotes into verse intensifies the effect, making the words even more ridiculous, parodies to revel in. And the Petrases take it one step further: organizing the poems by themes, introducing each work with a Norton Anthology mock seriousness, discussing "schools," and larding the text with footnotes, the Anthology of Really Important Modern Poetry is pure deadpan pleasure. Includes Drew Barrymore: "Upon Pondering Breasts" and Tom Cruise: "An Exegesis on Psychiatry." Kathryn and Ross Petras are the authors of B is for Botox : an alphabet book for the middle aged.
Genre:
American wit and humor.
