“Tony Hoagland’s images, his metaphors, and his ideas crack like a whip, like a loud shout cutting across a noisy room. His style reads conversationally but belies a great verbal ingenuity that hooks the ear and mind, that holds the attention and elevates our engagement. It is this flash, this boldness, that ultimately raises Hoagland’s poetry to the level of great art.” Nick Lantz, author of You, Beast.
“Tony Hoagland’s work grapples with the distortions of contemporary America and what it takes to remain human in these strange times. Joan Logghe, poet.
