Irving Feldman is ''one of
the most engaging and
powerful poets of his
generation..His 'new volume
is his'finest to date."
-Lionel Trilling
"A strong book from one of our best poets... , He is
something likE:) a Malamud in verse, equally given to
dream and elegy, to the whole wry fable-making post–
Talmudic tradition.•.• Feldman is always fully up front,
master of his language and occasion, a true and feeling
wit."
-The New York Times Book Review
