Halfway Between Everywhere
Of the poems in this collection, Tony Hoagland says, "Kurt has a linguistically intricate ear and a forceful passionate intellect, and when they work together the poems blaze with a fluent originality" and DeWitt Henry, founder of Ploughshares, says, "Kurt Lovelace dips his poet’s tongue into the honey of intelligence and witness. His voice is authentic; and his arresting collection has the heft and range of a tome."
