"[The editors'] collaboration resulted in a book with a remarkable group of poets across the ages, from Emily Dickinson to Charles Bukowski, from Catullus to Bob Dylan. . . . These are poems focusing on concerns of the heart--fathers and sons, love and hurt, peace and war, anger, denial and zaniness." -- Seattle Post
