Reviews
" Edward Field may indeed have something in common with the cafe patron in one of his poems who sobs 'Je suis vieux!' but he is still producing spry, animated poems, which perfectly mix honesty and playfulness. Let us stand up, friends, and give his new collection a round of loud applause." --Billy Collins, "Primal, earthy images in exceptional poetry. . .The verses about the creation of day, night, sun, moon, stars, thunder, lightning, heaven, earth and hell resound with wonder, vengeance, and bravery, offering a keen sense of the people." --Kirkus ReviewsonMagic Words, "The last of the old poems in Field's latest selection is "Sorry, I Never Slept with Allen Ginsberg." It's as grand a valediction to the old bohemian as he's likely ever to get, and it forcibly reminds us of another queer, Jewish, radical, New York poet who's much more fun to read--Edward Field! Although he has been as footloose as his famous coeval (many older poems attest to voyages from North Africa to Afghanistan, and one of the newest concludes, "I'll keep going, keep going, keep going . . ."), Field still seems much more of a homebody, writing about pottering about the apartment and the city more than faraway places. When he writes about the (his) body, he is wondrous as Ginsberg but commonplace and funny rather than cosmic and vatic. When he's vulgar (reasonably often), he's like a benign, though filthy, stand-up comic, minus the cynicism. His celebrated Hollywood poems, extrapolating from silver screen "classics" both actual ("Bride of Frankenstein") and conceptual ("Comeback"), are incisively mordant and pitifully moving, masterpieces of camp sensibility. But if humor predominates in his older work, anger suffuses the new poems, written after the fall of the Twin Towers. Because the anger is mastered and channeled into cogent, down-to-earth speech, Field's may be the best 9/11 protest poems yet." --Booklist, "The last of the old poems in Field's latest selection is "Sorry, I Never Slept with Allen Ginsberg."

"--Kirkus Reviews "on "Magic Words", "I have for decades considered Edward Field our greatest living poet.  He combines the wriest wit with the deepest compassion.  He has raised the movie poem, the 'confessional' poem, the performance poem, and the memoir to the highest art in the most conversational of styles.  He taught an entire 'generation of poets' to talk straight and 'sassy.'  He remains modest, mischievous, and full of surprises.  He is quite simply (or not so simply) the best." --Gerald Locklin, "Edward Field may indeed have something in common with the caf patron in one of his poems who sobs 'Je suis vieux!' but he is still producing spry, animated poems, which perfectly mix honesty and playfulness.  Let us stand up, friends, and give his new collection a round of loud applause." --Billy Collins, "Edward Field may indeed have something in common with the cafÉ patron in one of his poems who sobs 'Je suis vieux!' but he is still producing spry, animated poems, which perfectly mix honesty and playfulness.  Let us stand up, friends, and give his new collection a round of loud applause." --Billy Collins, "It [ After the Fall ] is a testimony, or rather a witnessing of a very rich and deep life. Field is a poet that does not take himself too seriously, and that renders his poetry, not only readable, but simply put, great." --Liberty Press, " I have for decades considered Edward Field our greatest living poet. He combines the wriest wit with the deepest compassion. He has raised the movie poem, the 'confessional' poem, the performance poem, and the memoir to the highest art in the most conversational of styles. He taught an entire 'generation of poets' to talk straight and 'sassy.' He remains modest, mischievous, and full of surprises. He is quite simply (or not so simply) the best." --Gerald Locklin, "Edward Field may indeed have something in common with the cafe patron in one of his poems who sobs 'Je suis vieux!' but he is still producing spry, animated poems, which perfectly mix honesty and playfulness.
