Synopses & ReviewsReview:"To read Robert Hass is to be in the presence of a singular brightness and freshness of mind." (-- Elizabeth Hardwick) Review:"Robert Hass is so intelligent that to read his poetry or prose, or to him speak, gives one an almost visceral pleasure." (-- Carolyn Kizer, The New York Times Book Review) Review:"Human Wishes takes Hass's poetry to a level of tenderness that few of his contemporaries have reached.... It would not surprise me if he turned out to be one of our major poets, for he has all the requisites: intelligence, depth, musicality, sweep, intimacy, humor, observation, learning, and above all, compassion." (-- The Boston Globe) Review:"What's immediately striking in Robert Hass's work is the sheer abundance of pleasures. The poems in Human Wishes are energetic and full of surprises. Robert Hass captures both the brightness of the world and itsvanishing."
