Reviews of Close Calls with Nonsense


“For newcomers, it will be a guidebook; for experienced readers, Burt offers what may be the first concentrated statement explaining how and why we, consumers and writers of contemporary poetry, read.”
—TIMEOUT NEW YORK

“In clear, conversational prose, Stephen Burt unties knotty contemporary poetry in Close Calls With Nonsense: Reading New Poetry, suggesting ways to read poems about “what matters in life.” Burt makes you want to run out to a bookstore to get in on the excitement he conveys throughout this book.”
—ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
