Alternating between the loveable irrascibility and self-mocking
humor reminiscent of the poet Cold Mountain (Han Shan), Budbill's
poems view the modern world from the viewpoint of a New England
hermit-scholar. Remarkable for their generous spirit, accessibility
and biting criticism, these poems present a poet of strong mind and
voice.
"Budbill both informs and moves. He is, in short, a delight and
a comfort."- Wendell Berry
"Budbill writes out of the real, contemporary, New England, not
from the past, not from the cellar holes. He speaks from the New
England which is Appalachia - poverty, exploitation, and good
people."-Donald Hall
David Budbill is the author of numerous books of poetry, ?ction,
and drama, and is an occasional commentator on NPR's "All Things
Considered." With bassist William Parker, Budbill performs a duet
collaboration entitled "Zen Mountains / Zen Streets." He lives in
rural Vermont.
