Great Regulars: We interrupt our regularly scheduled

Poetry Pairing today to celebrate the fact that Philip Levine, who writes "big-hearted, Whitmanesque poems about working-class Detroit," has been named the next poet laureate.

This week we pair a poem of Mr. Levine's, "An Extraordinary Morning," with a piece by Dwight Garner, a book critic at The Times, about Mr. Levine's work.
