If you’ve ever spoken with us about them, you’ve probably noticed that we fancy them quite a bit! We’re lucky to have so many incredibly intelligent, talented, and downright <em>fascinating </em>individuals on our team.</p> <p>A recent example of our collective Manhattan LSAT-instructor-coolness takes us deep in to the world of metaphor and rhyme. <a href="//www.manhattanprep.com/lsat/jbeer.cfm" target="_blank">John Beer</a>, a Manhattan LSAT teacher in Chicago, has recently been given the Norma Farber First Book Award for his book, <em>The Waste Land And Other Poems</em>, The <a href="//www.poetrysociety.org/psa/awards/annual/winners/2011/award/" target="_blank">Norma Farber Award</a> is given annually to one exceptional poet who has published their first book of original American poetry. John will be traveling to New York City in April to accept the award.</p> <p>I’ve been treating myself to a healthy sized sample of these poems for the last week or so and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience.</p> <p>There is even an entire section toward the end of the book called “Sonnets to Morpheus”. Yep, that’s a Matrix reference!</p> <p>We’re so incredibly proud of John. I would encourage any of you who are interested in poetry to<a href="//www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_6_29?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=the+wasteland+and+other+poems&sprefix=the+wasteland+and+other+poems"> check out his book</a>, available on Amazon.</p> <p>Harvard’s Stephen Burt <a href="//www.bostonreview.net/BR36.1/burt.php" target="_blank">has written a review</a> of <em>The Waste Land And Other Poems</em> for bostonreview.net (scroll down a little ways until you see John’s name in the subheading)</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.manhattanprep.com/lsat/blog/the-talented-mr-beer/">The Talented Mr. Beer</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.manhattanprep.com/lsat">LSAT</a>.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> </channel> </rss>
