The Language of Life offers the complete audio track to Moyers's PBS television series. Listeners will hear participants in the Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival as they read their work and discuss the ideas behind their poetry. Moyers shows his usual enthusiasm while interviewing the poets and discovering what makes each of them unique. Although this presentation will not attract as diverse an audience as his previous programs (e.g., Bill Moyers' World of Ideas: Dissolving Boundaries, Audio Reviews, LJ 9/1/91), the material contains the work of poets from nearly every school and culture. From the Japanese haiku poetry translated by Robert Haas to the emotionally moving poems of Daisy Zamora, there is literally something for everyone here. Recommended for future poets and the libraries they frequent.-Theresa Connors, Arkansas Technological Univ., Russellville
