An intelligent, lucid conversation--between the authors and between them and us. I have been with them all--there is no better companion! --Gerald Stern

Thoughtful, generous, and accurate to both deeper truths and the craftwork it takes to hold them, The Poet's Companion is a superb guide for the working poet. --Jane Hirshfield

An intelligent, lucid conversation between the authors and between them and us. I have been with them all there is no better companion!--Gerald Stern"
