Praise for James Longenbach "[James Longenbach's poems] wash over you like waves, lift you up and set you down back at the beginning of your life. . . . Longenbach's lucid poems echo across decades, bound for poetry's future." - Rob Schlegel, author of Childcare "A wrenchingly personal account of memory, sorrow, and profound beauty, rendered in lyric poetry. . . . [M]ortality shadows every erotic or tender gesture." - David Baker, author of Whale Fall "[Evoking] the vivid dailiness of domestic life . . . and the specificity and poignance of what feels like actual memories . . . these lyrics are intimately personal, achingly autobiographical." - Langdon Hammer, American Scholar "[James Longenbach's poems] enact with such precision the very problem they pronounce: that the pleasure of the language we read can, like memory, only approach the lives we actually live. Line by line, the poems' likelihood to narrate, repeat, or gorgeously veer describes what it is to love and simultaneously feel oneself inside the grandiosity of time." - Sally Keith, author of River House
