Recommended. -- Pam Kingsbury Library Journal A richly documented book that eclipses earlier biographies. -- Bruce Allen Down East: The Magazine of Maine [A] sterling biography. -- David Yezzi Wall Street Journal [A] readable and well-researched book. -- Rebecca Porte Minneapolis Star Tribune Unquestionably, Robinson's life and poetry are worthy of celebration. A Poet's Life offers the reader a chance to participate in that celebration. -- John Shulson Virginia Gazette Mr. Donaldson's close readings of the poems are masterful and edifying. -- Ernest Hilbert The New York Sun [Donaldson's] thorough documentation and responsiveness to Robinson's poetry displaces previous accounts of this fascinating, enigmatic character. -- William H. Pritchard Times Literary Supplement A smoothly readable, profoundly well-documented biography. -- X. J. Kennedy The New Criterion Scott Donaldson has been able to give us a superb accounting of the life of a major 20th century poet. -- Hannah Merker Maine Sunday Telegram Donaldson's words, like his subjects, are always heartfelt. Republic If [Robinson's] reputation is ever to revive, and it should, the credit ought to go to Scott Donaldson and his biography. -- Charles Simic New York Review of Books Lire la suite...
