Just out from Michigan State University Press is Fast Break to Line Break: Poets on the Art of Basketball, edited by Todd Davis, professor of English. It is comprised of essays by poets about their relationship to the game of basketball.

The book includes essays by such noted poets as Pulitzer-prize winner Stephen Dunn and Quincey Troupe, and from men and women from a range of backgrounds, including Filipino American, African American, and Native American.
