Poems of New York

Poems of New York is a beautifully crafted poetry collection celebrating the spirit, grit, and grandeur of New York City through the words of the world’s greatest poets. From Walt Whitman’s exuberant odes to Langston Hughes’s Harlem, and from Dorothy Parker’s wit to Allen Ginsberg’s raw energy, this anthology captures the city in all its light and shadow. Featuring poetic tributes that span generations—including moving reflections on September 11—this volume paints a vivid portrait of the metropolis, from Coney Island to Central Park, and from the South Bronx to the Upper East Side. Presented in Everyman’s Library’s signature hardcover edition, Poems of New York is a timeless keepsake for poetry lovers and anyone captivated by the soul of the city that never sleeps.
