โSternโs unadorned craftsmanship has few rivals in American letters.โโPhiladelphia Inquirer
Early Collected Poems gathers the poems from the first six books of Gerald Sternโs body of work. A master poet, Stern has sought new language for the overlooked, neglected, and unseen facets of human experience. Whether writing about modern poets, Hebrew prophets, death, war, or love, โSternโs literary songs are sharp, surprising, and unerring in their deliveryโ (Ploughshares, Editorโs Choice).
