Reviews
Reading 'Aubade,' the tiny poem [concluding] Coyle's...collection is like witnessing a hole-in-one. It's a single, flawless stroke. -- Eric McHenry * The New York Times *
Coyle is absolutely on top of his game [and] easily one of the best poets of his generation. -- David Mason * The Hudson Review *
[Coyle] writes with a clear flow of lively thought, and at the same time plays the whole instrument of poetry. * Richard Wilbur *
Throughout his poetic cosmology, Coyle's work is striking for its light touch and thoughtful content [and] for its unpretentious command of traditional forms. * The Antioch Review *
Vision by turns compassionate and comedic...striking for its light touch and thoughtful content...steadily measured and, often, meticulously rhymed. -- Ned Balbo * Antioch Review *
Bill Coyle is a welcome new voice in a crowded choir....A winning combination and collection. -- Brad Leithauserd, Author Of Darlington's
