Bill Allen's new book, The Birth of the Atlantic, has everything I look for in poetry: surprising language, varied preoccupations, a gentleness in the voice, and a companionable presence. He moves through history and time, nature and cities with his mind captivated, finding the unexpected image and phrasing to make the poems lyrical and pleasurable.

Allen, William: - Bill's work echoes beloved voices from poetry, poets, history and politics and a look at the natural world in an era of climate action, with personal memories and a fervent look into language, love and the ties that bind us to each other. There's humor, humanism, a music of the earth, irreverence, a quest for ethical answers in a world titling off its axis. Poems echo Lowell and Bishop, Pasolini, Philip Levine and Muriel Rukeyser, with their spirits of questioning and grace. Also a visual artist, Bill's work can be seen at www.ekphrases.com.He is the recipient of a 2009 National Endowment for the Arts fellowship in Creative Writing and has published five previous books of poems. Bill worked at the United Nations in New York in writing and technology communications for many years after teaching at Cooper Union and the School of Visual Arts, hoping to bring a poetry of humanism and heart to the poetry canon. He's currently working with a conservation advisory group to explore and inventory Hudson Valley local habitats and climate needs.
