“Hirsch’s substantial volume honors the whole range of American verse, . . . [it] deserves, and rewards, close, patient attention. . . . A book of revelations.”
—Michael Dirda, The Washington Post
“Every now and then a book comes along to light a fire underneath you. The Heart of American Poetry is such a volume. . . . This exquisite book . . . pulses with love; it is enlightening and reassuring on the why of poetry and the why of ourselves. Every shelf should have a place for this collection—warm yourselves in its glow.”
—N. J. McGarrigle, The Irish Independent
“This labor of love from one of America’s greatest champions of poetry stands out from critically distant collections as a personal and heartfelt retrospective.”
—Jeffrey Johnson, The Christian Century
