"Breakfast Served Any Time All Day" collects forty years of
writings on poetry in one essential volume by master of American
letters Donald Hall.
Praise for "Breakfast Served"
." . . the essays in this book are engaging, passionate,
strange, and unified. Hall has been around a long time, and you can
trace the concerns of a generation through the mind of this one
man: questions about the diminished scope of poetry, the diminished
ambitions of poets, how a poem 'means, ' etc. . . . . Criticism . .
. is an exercise in sanity, of which these essays are a splendid
and useful example."
-"Poetry"
"A luminous and essential volume about the sensuality of language,
its pleasures and sounds."
-"Ploughshares"
"It is in this merger of a poet's biography and a poem's body that
Hall does his best work. . . . ["Breakfast Served Any Time All
Day"] has an undeniably infectious quality to it. Finishing it, you
cannot help but want to return to your bookshelf, and read-again or
for the first time-the great forgotten poems of our past."
-Nathan Greenwood Thompson, "Rain Taxi"
