These poems contain the generosity of a life that knows the confluence between the ancients and the moderns. They bring traditional form back into vitality and unite it with the life that refuses to get stuck in the past.
—Fran Quinn, author of A Horse Of Blue Ink
Abbot Cutler is a poet whose soul holds other, whose voice fills with poets he’s digested and whose lines know endings and beginnings as life’s force.
—Myra Shapiro, author of When The World Walks Towards You
With a plain-spoken deep intelligence, keen eye, and wry wit, he ponders large questions while remaining firmly rooted in the physical world.
—Patty Crane, author of Bell I Wake To, and translator of The Blue House: Collected Works of Tomas Transtromer.
