“A poet of wit, spit, and polish, Aaron Rosen deals with two major themes, love and language, each held close and at furthest distance. He is simultaneously spare and rich; he is a master of opposites brought into close proximity, call it storm and calm, or the proximity of appearance and illusion, certainty and hesitation. His is a poetry of discovery and preservation—the structures of his art.” —Stanley Moss
