The poems in Eamon Grennan’s The Quick of It—each one without
title and compacted into ten taut lines—are rendered with exquisite
detail and reverence for the everyday elements of weather, landscape,
family, art, all sorts of questions. |

Grennan’s poems are persistent, amplified acts of attention, proving
with every detail—light glancing off stone, an orange stem framing a
Chardin still life, the contours of the body trapping the mind—that we
are our best selves when we are most alert.
“Eamon Grennan’s writing brings us over and over again to the discovery of what is naturally so and had passed unrecognized.” —W.S. Merwin
“Grennan is in love with language the way a poet should be. I read him with care—and admiration.” —Gerald Stern
