The Ether Dome is the most complete collection available of the work of one of our most disturbing and humanly gifted poets. Grossman takes the risks of writing as a seer and prophet, and frequently justifies this perilous ascent to an authentic sublimity.—Harold Bloom
In addition to substantial new work, Allen Grossman in The Ether Dome and Other Poems New and Selected 1979-1991 gives his readers a retrospective of a life in poetry that has brought him such honors as a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Witter Bynner Prize of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, and a MacArthur Fellowship.
