His remarkable breadth of calm concern is impressive."" -- Gary Snyder - The New York Times Book Review ""Combining scholarly authority with a moral allegiance to the arcane, the translator and editor Weinberger creates genre-bending essays and prose poems to help us see the world anew."" -- Daphne Kalotay - The New York Times ""His essays use lists, collages of information, and sometimes, as poetry does, varying line breaks. They don’t read like anyone else’s work."" -- Christopher Byrd - The New Yorker" Author InformationEliot Weinberger’s books of literary essays include Karmic Traces, An Elemental Thing, The Ghosts of Birds, and Angels & Saints.
