Plumly Wins 2008 Paterson Prize in Poetry
July 13, 2010
Professor Stanley Plumly's 2007 collection of poems, Old Heart, has won the 2008 Paterson Poetry Prize from the The Poetry Center in Paterson, New Jersey.
The Poetry Center is celebrating Professor Plumly's winning of the prize by inviting him to read his poetry there next February.
Professor Plumly's most recent book, Posthumous Keats: A Personal Biography (2008), is being released by Norton Publishers on May 26, 2008. A Washington Post review by Ted Genoways states that is "a book worthy of Keats – full of feeling and drama and those fleeting moments we call genius."
