Allen Grossman is emeritus professor of humanities at the Johns Hopkins University. He is the author of eleven books of poems, including, most recently, Descartes' Loneliness, and three books of criticism.
"The writings of Allen Grossman have a devoted following and are accorded a nearly legendary status by poets and scholars of poetry alike. With True-Love, his readers will have an opportunity to follow the development of his thinking about the contrary forces of violence and beholding at work in all poetic making and reception. This paradoxical and 'bitter logic,' perennially yoking destruction to recognition, is treated in these essays with a depth and rigor that could only come out of the lifetime of thought Grossman has brought to it." - Susan Stewart, Princeton University"
