foremost contemporary poets;his pre-vious book of verse,Charon's Cosmology,receivedhighest literary acclaim.  \n\"His poems echo and re-echo in the mind,as ofmemories of lives,impulses and cataclysms longsince buried within us....He drawsus into a com-plex of perceptions and feelings that have been lyingbeneath the surface ofour conventional defenses,tobe penetrated by just this act of revelation,awak-ening us once more to an awareness of our truelives.\"  \nDAVID IGNATOW in Tbe New York Times  \n\"Simic is a genius at equating the ineffable,enter-taining us with it,and then turning it back onus....We feel the presence of his ghost movingthings from one side of the river to the other,work-ing silently and carefully-behind the form,withinthe form,until there can be no difference betweencontext and consciousness.The aura and aural di-mension around Simic's proverbs is of the voice ofa passenger on a river in a place of disaffection beingrowed back and forth under a star chart that doesnot change.”STANLEY PLUMLEY in The American Poetry Review  \n“The poems written out of the unforgettable detailsseen with a child's clarity,recalled against the am-nesia of time,and vainly anatomized for signifi-cance,contain Simic's best work....Simic's forc-ing of the gates of memory yields him brokentreasures that he pores over like an archeologist.Perception and shattered memory are his substi-tutes for belief:he is modern to that degree,bu:nos-talgia for some unknown ancient coherence tingeshis modernity.\"HELEN VENDLER in Tbe Yale Rerniecus  \nWINTER PARK PUBLIC LIBRARY460
