Book excerpt: "Thomas Graves has a very real devotion to Ben Mazer's poetry and wants to pass it along in this book. Graves is a passionate, sometimes contradictory writer, pleasing to read without necessarily sharing his points of indignation. If a Romantic poet goes to extremes either inwardly or by travel, in order to test their own depth of consciousness, this study of Mazer as a Romantic poet, is accurate and interesting. Fortunately the poems by Mazer live up to the praise and to the word "Romantic" as Graves understands it. This is a valuable contribution to our ever-evolving understanding of American poetry"--
