Recenzii
"This is an extraordinary collection – the poetry of the future, here, today." —John Ashbery
"Omnivorous, fast-forward, bull-in-a-china-shop poems that deliver more beauty per minute than can comfortably be withstood. If Whitman had had a young kid and a Brooklyn apartment, too many bills, and a stack of takeout menus in the top drawer of his Ikea desk, he would have written these poems. This is my favorite book of the year." —Dan Chiasson,The New Yorker
"Like a favorite late-night DJ surfacing from the AM static one particularly desolate evening, Timothy Donnelly's The Cloud Corporation, his first collection of poetry in seven years, more than makes up for all the dead air."—Los Angeles Times
