Dan Beachy-Quick on The Four Horsemen.

May 03, 2025 by Peter O'Leary in Four Horsemen, Cultural Society

Dan Beachy-Quick has written an appreciation of The Four Horsemen at Colorado Review.

Writes Beachy-Quick: “What recommends this book so highly in my mind is the alternative path it points out for what poetry scholarship might look like—not an arcane exploration of academic expertise, but an enthused initiation into the arcane mysteries poetry still embeds within itself.”
