At Night, Beneath Trees: Selected Poems

"Michael Kruger is an Augustan among modernists. Wry, stylish, elegiac, his writing, while always reverting to Germany's own condition, explores an international cultural terrain, in which we encounter literary attitudes as diverse as those of John Ashbery or Seamus Heaney....His poems erase the difference between self and other, inner and outer, public and private....A remarkable European German poet, with poems such as these, Michael Kruger has clearly earned an international reputation."Richard Dove is the author of 'At Night, Beneath Trees: Selected Poems' with ISBN 9780807614310 and ISBN 0807614319.
