Brad Leithauser is the author of five previous books of poetry, five novels, a book of essays, and a novel in verse. After many years of teaching at Mount Holyoke College, he is now a professor in the Writing Seminars at Johns Hopkins University. He and his wife, the poet Mary Jo Salter, divide their time between Amherst, Massachusetts, and Baltimore, Maryland.
“There’s a down-to-earth wisdom in the way Brad Leithauser sees the
transcendent in everyday experience: Instead of trying to make it
happen, he lets it happen.” —Katie Peterson, Chicago Tribune
“Why devote oneself to that aggressively minor genre, poetry, when
novels and screenplays and tell-all memoirs get more notice and
make more money? Brad Leithauser answers that question in Curves
and Angles.” —The New York Times Book Review
