"A polyphonic dirge for love lost, for estrangement, for communal breakdown, that is also at the same time a heart wrenching celebration of love, connection, and all the perishable bonds that join us to each other, The Falling Hour finds in every song of grief a song of praise. This is a great book by one of our very finest poets". Alan Shapiro "I would not have thought that a poetry of conscience could be this hypnotic -- these vivid, intelligent, and sad poems compensate for the late century's loss of someone true, such as Muriel Rukeyser or Wystan Auden". Norman Dubie
