Reviews
"The most companionable of poetic companions."-- The New York Times "Collins continues his penchant for writing witty, companionable verse that's often rooted in everyday matters."-- The Wall Street Journal "Collins writes of time and death with humor and whirligig images and wordplay so unexpected and delectable, reading his poetry is like watching a magician transform ordinary objects--a coin, a card--into something breathtaking out of thin air."-- Booklist "This is the poet's richest work to date."-- Newsday "Beloved, witty, smart, yet accessible." --St. Petersburg Times "Billy Collins is one of today's most popular poets, revered for his ability to evoke humor and heartbreak in verses both subtle and sagacious." --Wisconsin State Journal, "The most companionable of poetic companions."- The New York Times "Collins writes of time and death with humor and whirligig images and wordplay so unexpected and delectable, reading his poetry is like watching a magician transform ordinary objects-a coin, a card-into something breathtaking out of thin air."- Booklist "This is the poet's richest work to date."- Newsday "Beloved, witty, smart, yet accessible." -St. Petersburg Times "Billy Collins is one of today's most popular poets, revered for his ability to evoke humor and heartbreak in verses both subtle and sagacious." -Wisconsin State Journal, Praise for Billy Collins "Collins reveals the unexpected within the ordinary. He peels back the surface of the humdrum to make the moment new."- The Christian Science Monitor "The most companionable of poetic companions."- The New York Times "Billy Collins demonstrates why he is one of our best poets, with his appealing trademark style: a self-deprecating charm, playful wit and unexpected imaginative leaps."- San Antonio Express-News "By careful observation, Collins spins comic gold from the dross of quotidian suburban life. . . . Chipping away at the surface, he surprises you by scraping to the wood underneath, to some deeper truth."- Entertainment Weekly "A poet of plentitude, irony, and Augustan grace."- The New Yorker "It is difficult not to be charmed by Collins, and that in itself is a remarkable literary accomplishment."- The New York Review of Books, "The most companionable of poetic companions."- The New York Times "Collins continues his penchant for writing witty, companionable verse that's often rooted in everyday matters."- The Wall Street Journal "Collins writes of time and death with humor and whirligig images and wordplay so unexpected and delectable, reading his poetry is like watching a magician transform ordinary objects-a coin, a card-into something breathtaking out of thin air."- Booklist "This is the poet's richest work to date."- Newsday "Beloved, witty, smart, yet accessible." -St. Petersburg Times "Billy Collins is one of today's most popular poets, revered for his ability to evoke humor and heartbreak in verses both subtle and sagacious." -Wisconsin State Journal
