Philip Hoy is proprietor of Waywiser, a fledgling imprint for which VFN will be the first volume. Between The Lines, his established imprint, publishes justly acclaimed book-length interviews with our senior poets on both sides of the Atlantic, i.e., Hecht, Justice, Wilbur, Heaney, Snodgrass, Hamilton, Simic, etc. I particularly commend to our members Philip's interview with Hecht, which can be previewed at
http://www.interviews-with-poets.com Mr. Hecht will be writing a prefatory essay to my book, so I can hardly be objective about his new book, The Darkness And The Light.
But folks, I think it's the greatest book of English language verse to appear since Wilbur gave us his Collected Poems in 1988.
