"Any new collection of poems by Robert
Morgan is a gift, and October Crossing is
wonderful through and through. In the past
thirty years I have learned a great deal from
this man, who is exemplary as a poet, as a
prose writer, and as a human being."
—Ted Kooser
"Robert Morgan's poems are always exciting
for their precise knowledge of country things,
and of how things go in the world of natural
fact and process. This new collection gives
us also some delightful lore from the
Southern mountains: we learn of the horse
fiddle, and holy cussing, and the intrepid
pastor who held off bear or panther with his
umbrella."
—Richard Wilbur
"Forty years after the publication of his first
book,Robert Morgan makes this remarkable
October Crossing. 'Beating back the
blackest shadows…to the pulse of clap and
laughter,' he surely earns the collection’s
final prospect: 'years ahead / as golden as the
leaves on hickories.'"
—Robert West
"The best poems in October Crossing sound
so fresh and strong that it is hard to believe
that Robert Morgan’s first book, Zirconia
Poems, came out in 1969, forty years ago.
Morgan’s distinctive voice still sounds much
the same, honest and straight, but always with
new subtleties and a willingness to move into
new country. Like Thomas Wolfe and
Wallace Stevens. Robert Morgan seems to
own October, and he makes the most of it,
mature and original."
