Story
From the two-term Poet Laureate of the United States Billy Collins comes his first compilation of new and selected poems in 12 years. Aimless Love combines new poems with selections from four previous books— Nine Horses, The Trouble with Poetry, Ballistics, and Horoscopes for the Dead. Collins’s unmistakable voice, which brings together plain speech with imaginative surprise, is clearly heard with every word, reminding us how he has managed to enrich the tapestry of contemporary poetry and greatly expand its audience.

Billy is the Best!
Reviewed: 03-11-19
I love listening to Billy Collins read his own poetry. His dry, understated delivery actually heightens the humor and pathos of the written poems. Always inviting and often playful, his poems nevertheless startle and provoke. Like his favorite 17-year-old daughter, we love Billy "just the way he is."
