Poet Laureate Ted Kooser at the top of his imaginative and storytelling powers. Here are the richly metaphorical, imagistically masterful, clear and accessible poems for which he has become widely known. Kooser writes for an audience of everyday readers and believes poets \"need to write poetry that doesn't make people feel stupid.\" Each poem in \u003cem\u003eRed Stilts\u003c\/em\u003e strives to reveal the complex beauties of the ordinary, of the world that's right under our noses. Right under Kooser's nose is rural America, most specifically the Great Plains, with its isolated villages, struggling economy, hard-working people and multiple beauties that surpass everything wrecked, wrong, or in error.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ted Kooser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 155659609X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781556596094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Copper Canyon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 85\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.50w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2020 pg. 70","brand":"Ted Kooser","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44043977392383,"sku":"9781556596094","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a968f398-6bd3-4811-a552-84524121f802.jpg?v=1684970206","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/red-stilts-ted-kooser-9781556596094","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
