Two of our foremost poets provide here a lucid, straightforward primer that "looks squarely at some of the headaches and mysteries of poetic form": a book for readers who have always felt that an understanding of form (sonnet, ballad, villanelle, sestina, among others) would enhance their appreciation of poetry. Tracing "the exuberant history of forms," they devote one chapter to each form, offering explanation, close reading, and a rich selection of examplars that amply demonstrate the power and possibility of that form.

Awful, very soft not firm at all
Color: White, Size: Standard/Queen, Color: White, Size: Standard/Queen
Ordered the Serta Ocean Breeze Breathable Medium/Firm Bed Pillow. The listing is misleading—it shows two pillows in the photo, but only one is included for the $47.00 price. The pillow arrived vacuum-packed and was extremely flat. Despite efforts, I couldn't fluff it back to a usable thickness; the total loft was only about 4 inches. Very disappointed with the quality and presentation. Returned item.

Only 1 pillow
Color: White, Size: Standard/Queen
It is misleading that the picture shows 2 pillows but you get 1 pack, that would mean 2 pillows but what do I know, huh? This is only 1 pillow.
