By David Daniel "Visionary but dry-eyed, David Daniel is one of the purest and most powerful lyric poets of his generation." —Tom Sleigh |
By Paul Lisicky “Lawnboy is, quite simply, the real thing, a novel of mystery and great beauty.”—Michael Cunningham |
By Alyson Hagy "A wonderful story collection, so brilliantly vivid, it is like a trip to this pocket of the world so steeped in history and folklore. You can hear the surf and smell the cut bait. And you can enter the lives of a host of colorful characters, each expressing his or her own kind of longing as well as a connection to this lush place."—Jill McCorkle |
By Carl Phillips "Out so much farther than our present pieties, attentive to no social or sentimental voice, only passion's (so often ruinous, defiant of upshot), it is not in every case, every poem, that Carl Phillips triumphs over my timidity. As with Sappho and Pasolini, though, traces of the winged god are everywhere unmistakable, even when this new poet has kicked them over: it is a sacred entail his harsh graces make. I for one am an awed (if lacerated) heir." —Richard Howard |
By Stephen Burt The essays and critical writings on contemporary poetry by Stephen Burt, "the finest critic of his generation" (Lucie Brock-Broido) |
