"David Ferry must have had something up his sleeve when he called
his book "Strangers," because his is a poetry of intimacy and
familiarity. More than that, Mr. Ferry's short, sparse lyrics are
as perfectly and simply composed as Japanese haiku--a rare
accomplishment in poetry written in English."--Andy Brumer, "New
York Times Book Review"
""Strangers" is a remarkably good book for a reader sufficiently
attentive to hear its quiet power, to let it work in its
distinctive way."--"Boston Globe"
"The poems of David Ferry's "Strangers" are in fact one book, and
it is a splendid one. There is the same austere and poignant voice
throughout, asking the unanswerable things, speaking of all that is
withheld from us, confronting the unknownness that dwells even in
the familiar and dear. Painful and touching, the book offers a
distinctive vision which is at the same time inescapably
true."--Richard Wilbur
