Daniel Hall; Foreword by James Merrill
Out of Print
"The craftsmanship is consistently adroit and admirably low-key: Hall knows the virtues of the half-rhyme and the well-tempered stanza."—Publishers Weekly
"There's plenty to reflect on here . . . . [Hall] will find [an audience] in that part of the contemporary readership that recognizes an art that conceals art, that responds generatively to language and the resources of verse, and can distinguish passion from easy sentimentality. May that readership grow."—Alfred Corn, Poetry
"Poems that exemplify the fact that Hall knows the virtues of the half-rhyme and the well-tempered stanza. Many of the poems are abstractions and/or truisms."—Bookazine Bulletin
"Hall's first collection is . . . the highly polished product of a virtuoso craftsman. . . . Engaging . . . rich.
