Among the additions to the fourth edition are Nobel Prize winner Derek Walcott, well known American poets Sharon Olds, Louise Gluck, Denise Leverton, Galway Kinnell, Robert Hass, Robert Bly, and Rita Dove; Scottish poet Carol Ann Duffy; Irish poet Eavan Boland; and Canadians Patrick Lane, Sharon Thesen, Don McKay, Erin Moure, and B.P.
