    Donnelly puts a lot of time into his ambitious books, so when they publish they are highly anticipated and reviewed and discussed vigorously.

    He writes lucidly on pressing topics such as global injustice and environmental devastation, contextualizing them in the day-to-day human experience.

    Poems from the book have appeared or are forthcoming in the New Yorker, the New Republic, A Public Space, the Paris Review, Poetry, and elsewhere

    Donnelly is well-known as a longtime poetry editor at the Boston Review (a post he left in protest over the sustained appointment of Junot Diaz), as well as the director of poetry at Columbia University.
