"No one else speaks with his benevolence and humor and still touches me at the depths of my own fear and love. I think his poems are a Godsend to us all."
--Hayden Carruth
"Oppenheimer was an immense and buoyant influence on the poesy of my contemporaries and me."
--Andrei Codrescu
Joel Oppenheimer (1930 - 1988) published more than a dozen books of poetry.
