Praise for David Baker "[David Baker's] work evinces the moral courage of keeping still in the landscape: in our era of climate change, poetry's mandate to measure the rhythms of the year has become a valuable form of witness.... He is heir to such writers as Henry David Thoreau... and Robert Frost. To read Baker's poems collected... is to appreciate the full range of their formal resources, their attunement to cycles and processes rather than to mere outcomes and effects." - Dan Chiasson, The New Yorker "Baker has spent his life learning how to let a complex moment unfold slowly across a poem. All of [his] poems are rich in observation, imagination, and memory." - Eric McHenry, New York Times Book Review "It's as if Baker can't write an off-key phrase, even in the midst of impassioned indictment.... [His] is a towering poetic consciousness, akin to Nature itself." - Carol Muske-Dukes, Huffington Post
