Sobbing Superpower by Tadeusz Rzewicz
An anti-poet relentlessly, even ruthlessly determined to tell the truth, however painful it may be.-Edward Hirsch
"Striking. . chilling. . . . [Rozewicz’s work] embodies that particular anxiety and familiar sense of diminishment we still associate with being ‘modern.’" -- The Nation
"Rozewicz is that rare character—a skeptic as full of passion as of intelligence, of warmth as wariness." -- judges’ citation, Griffin Poetry Prize
"Instead of answers, the poet offers only an examination. Like it or not, he says, this is all we have: a fragment, a glimpse, a rustle." -- New Republic
