Why people recommend it
99 Poems is a poetry collection by Dana Gioia that brings together a rich selection of lyrical work from the acclaimed American poet and writer. On an episode of EconTalk titled Dana Gioia on Learning, Poetry, and Studying with Miss Bishop, released on February 15, 2021, host Russ Roberts discussed various artistic and literary topics with his guest before concluding the conversation with a personal book suggestion. At the very end of the episode, Russ Roberts recommended that listeners pick up a copy of 99 Poems, noting that they could read and enjoy the selections featured within the volume. The recommendation served as a fitting literary sign-off for an episode deeply rooted in the appreciation of verse, learning, and the humanities. Listeners looking to explore contemporary American poetry were thus directed toward this specific collection as a rewarding point of entry into Gioia's extensive poetic career, which bridges traditional forms with modern emotional resonance.
