In Their Cups: An Anthology of Poems About Drinking Places, Drinks, and Drinkers

Anthology uncorks poetic spirit of libations' allure.

If you've ever found solace or inspiration within the clinking glasses and dimmed lights of a bar, "In Their Cups" is a literary companion that toasts to that very sentiment. A.J. Rathbun's curation of poems creates a mosaic of human experiences steeped in the world of drinks and drinking places, making it a perfect read for those who appreciate the reflective nature of a good drink and the tales that often accompany it.

Description

To drink is to share singular moments, each a mirror of past moments, and to become part of a grand legacy of people who laugh and sing and whisper with glass in hand. A good drink enlivens the mind. It makes us want to talk, and, on occasion, to write. The anthology In Their Cups is A.J. Rathbun’s masterful collection of the world’s best drinking poems, from classics to fresh new marvels. It’s a cocktail party where poets from throughout the centuries gather around the bar to spin stories, odes, and songs of sorrow and happiness, surrounded by bottles, ice, you, and your friends. In Their Cups includes poetry from A.J. Rathbun, Henry Aldrich, Thomas Bailey Aldrich, Guillaume Apollinaire, Emily Bedard, Bridget Bell, Allen Braden, Henry Carey, Richard Carr, Catullus, John Clare, Jaime Curl, Emily Dickinson, Philip Dow, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Stephen Dunn, Amy Fleury, Philip Freneau, Du Fu, Thomas Godfrey, Jeff Greer, James Gurley, Mark Halliday, Robert Herrick, Charles Fenno Hoffman, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Elizabeth Hughey, Richard Hugo, Christopher Janke, Jonathan Jonson, John Keats, J. Robert Lennon, John Lyly, William Maginn, Tod Marshall, Robert
