By A Customer
"In Philip Whalen's poetry, offhand compositional elegance and the deep amusement of wisdom combine to produce one of the pure delights of contemporary literature."

5.0 out of 5 stars Alice Notley says about Overtime, 25 Jun 1999
By A Customer
"Philip Whalen is a great poet; I get as much wisdom and affection from his word as from that of any poet whosoever, dead or alive, having lived whenever. The range, the space, the humor are all considerable, kingdoms of cloud mind unscrolling into the most concrete of details. This is a very large spirit."
