Praise for Grace Schulman

"A vital and permanent poet." –Harold Bloom

“When I read her, she makes me want to live to be four hundred years old, because she makes me feel that there is so much out there, and it’s unbearable to miss any of it.” Wallace Shawn

“I read Grace Schulman’s poems by the light of their own consummation—she is a torch.” –Richard Howard

"These poems are made of fire and wind, they shimmer in risk, in raw beauty and music. These poems hold no illusions about demarcations and signed over 'rights"—the permanence they offer lies in the shape of poetry as pure art, unpossessed." –Carol Muske Dukes

“Grace's true grace is experience that shines a light into emotional dark matter.” –Yusef Komunyakaa

“Grace Schulman’s brilliance lies in a certain detached involvement with her subjects. Her vision is both particular and universal. Poetry of such purity and quality is so rare that, when we find it, it is a joy to share the discovery with others.”
–Charles Guenther
