Make no mistake: Christian Wiman's poetic endeavors are
ambitious. From the personal lyrics of solitude and loss to "Being
Serious," the long poem that concludes "Hard Night," his poems
examine emotions clearly, without sentimentality. A profound
reverence for form and passion for poetry are evident in these
artfully shaped poems that contain and find meaning in the unwieldy
and inexplicable. Just as he is doing as the new editor of
"Poetry," Wiman makes intellectually and emotionally engaged
writing accessible to an expanding audience of readers.
Christian Wiman is the author of two books and a widely
published essayist and critic. He lives in Chicago, where he is
editor of "Poetry" magazine.
