Book Overview
Peter Meinke was a master of traditional poetic forms long before the current interest in "the new formalism." His work is, in turn, witty, comic, sane, deeply moving, and always readable. Liquid Paper collects the best of his previously published poems from the late 1960s on with a generous selection of new work.

I'm not normally a poetry reader, but I picked this up, and I was just blown away. Peter Meinke isn't afraid to be funny, but his poems are still touching and meaningful, and not at all hoity-toity. I especially loved "Supermarket" and "The Poet , Trying to Suprise God." I would recomend this book to anyone, even people who don't normally read poetry. Come on, give this one a try!
