(Author)
Description
"Robert Hazel has written poems that stand, not only apart, but high and alone." -Wendell Berry.
Gritty and tender, raw and lyrical, Robert Hazel's poetry illuminates the mystical in the commonplace, the sacred body in the exploited flesh, the human voice amidst the racket of our machines. His vision of America's life never flinches, it never loses faith, and it stays true to this day.

About the Author
Reviews
"Robert Hazel has written poems that stand, not only apart, but high and alone." -Wendell Berry
"I consider Robert Hazel to be one of the most important Southern poets writing today ... without parallel for evocation of life and passion... The honesty, breadth and depth of his insights amount to a sense of a total comprehension of the times." - David Ignatow
"Instead of polishing the shoes of the American dream or shrieking at it, Hazel is rude to it. He dislikes the usual clean-shaven version of American history...." - Robert Bly
"There is no poet of his generation to whom more has been given." - Allen Tate
