Laugh Lines: Humor, Genre, and Political Critique in Late Twentieth-Century American Poetry
Carrie Conners
Humour in recent American poetry has been largely dismissed or ignored by scholars, due in part to a staid reverence for the lyric. Laugh Lines argues that humour is not a superficial feature of a small subset, but instead an integral feature in a great deal of American poetry written since the 1950s.
