Creativity and the Poetic Mind mingles the voices of wellknown writers such as Nikki Giovanni, Donald Hall, John Koethe, Marge Piercy, and Robert Pinsky with newer voices, and includes engaging excerpts from interviews with thirtyeight American poets. Within a sustained argument about creative states of mind, this book innovatively presents and explores the technique of going to the place as more reliable in writing poetry than waiting for inspiration. It explains why poets frequently believe that talking about their own poetry may damage their creativity and why, for centuries, inspiration has seemed to come from somewhere beyond the poet. In addition, it discusses the practicality of poets thinking that being creative and writing poetry are two separate skills: inspiration is unreliable, but experienced poets create daily.
