Arthur Sze is a Pulitzer Prize finalist, a National Book Award winner, and recipient of fellowships from Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts.
“[Sze] brings together disparate realms of experience—astronomy,
botany, anthropology, Taoism—and observes their correspondences
with an exuberant attentiveness.”—The New Yorker
“Sze's is a deeply humanist and erotic sensibility, utilizing an
unadorned diction and language steeped in the metaphoric
possibilities that exist for us by mere dint of being human.”—Eric
P. Elshtain, Chicago Review
“Arthur Sze is a demanding and valuable poet… While the influence
of Eastern poetry is usually felt in American poetry as imagism, in
Sze's poems, that tradition is present not just as a quality of
perception, but of thought—made available to us in all its
complexity through a precision of language so refined that it feels
like marksmanship.”—Jacqueline Osherow, Antioch Review
“Sze's free verse emphasizes at once how difficult, and how
necessary, it is for us to imagine our world as a system whose
ecologies and societies require us to care for all their
interdependent parts.”—Publishers Weekly
