Beskrivning
On Tom Clark's poetry:
"Very exciting... The poems have the 'now' sound of current experience; they enable one to see a little further into life as it's presently being lived." -- John Ashbery
"Clark's knowledge of how poems are made, how to create works out of the sources in his environment, is one of many attributes placing him among the best poets writing today." -- Lewis Warsh, Poetry
"What's happening is the language. Not only in the usual sense of being interesting (which it is), but in the new sense that words are events, as real and important in themselves as wars and lovers... It is to the word, then, that the mind moves, and the word responds by taking on a physicality, even a sensuality, we have all been trained to ignore. Words have weight, and the distance between two can be a chasm filled with forces of association... What Clark is doing is genuinely new." -- Ron Silliman, Rolling Stone
