In 1988 the University of Arkansas Press published Billy Collins’s The Apple That Astonished Paris, his "first real book of poems," as Collins describes it in a new, delightful preface written expressly for this new printing to help celebrate both the Press’s twenty-fifth anniversary and this book, one of the Press’s all-time best sellers. This collection includes some of Collins’s most anthologized poems, including "Introduction to Poetry," "Another Reason Why I Don’t Keep a Gun in the House," and "Advice to Writers."
