Gary Fincke is Emeritus Charles Degenstein Professor of Creative Writing and Director of the Writers Institute at Susquehanna University.

"These beautifully wrought poems don't make me afraid. They don't
make me bitter. They cheer me to know that such a voice exists,
that such a life exists, that sees with honesty and wisdom. "What
matters, for serenity, / Is believing in your words," he writes. I
myself am a great believer in Fincke's words."
