Praise for Steve Turtell
His poems are shaped with an economy, with a supple control, that recalls the lyrics of W.B. Yeats -- perfectly solid and down to earth, yet floating with a lyric ease. This is an impressive collection.
Edward Field
Steve Turtell's poems are refreshingly direct and unpretentious. I'm moved by their generous humanity, their plainspoken, hard-won truths, and the poet's deep relishing of his experiences, desired or not. His uncommon craft makes it sound almost simple.
Joan Larkin
Steve Turtell's poetic voice is at once funny, tender, and tough-minded. His verse is lyrical, his subjects both social and sexual. His intelligence is grounded by a frank and warm-heartedly humane vision, and his eye is uncannily perceptive and true.
