Sonnets continues to be loved and taught as an underground classic, often on sun-bleached photocopy. Finally, in 2014, Tender Buttons Press has brought out an expanded 25th Anniversary Edition of Sonnets, along with this companion teaching guide. Included are the first review of Sonnets from Poetry Flash, an expanded version of Bernadette Mayer's List of Experiments, and a sampling of responses in answer to her call: "Please add to this list." Now even more poets, students, parents, scholars, pets and aliens can write poems after reading Bernadette Mayer's Experiments. Show more
