poetry collection
Gathered lyrical works
A poetry collection is a book or volume containing multiple poems, typically by a single author, gathered and arranged as a unified work.
Unlike an anthology, which compiles poems from various writers, a poetry collection usually represents one poet's voice and often explores related themes or a particular period of their work.
Her debut poetry collection won the National Book Award.
Collections may be organized chronologically, thematically, or in sequences that create meaning through juxtaposition.
