Self-Fiction: Gary Charles Wilkens on the anthology American Hybrid
American Hybrid, ed. Cole Swensen and David St. John, WW NortonPoets have always been fiction writers. I don’t mean those of us who are also novelists. I mean the stories that poets have told themselves about their art itself, at least since Plato, to allow them to get a handle on its slipperiness and make it their own.
