"Always thoughtful and heartfelt, Koethe's poems have become simply heartbreaking. Koethe.writes meditative, introspective poems that have long encouraged comparisons to Wallace Stevens."

"His best book yet...accessible and surprisingly powerful poems....you sense that Koethe slowly approaches death the way that he does life-with an unusual and infectious lightness."
