`Schmidt is always a stringent poet, never shy of painful truth' - Helen
Dunmore, The Observer
In his review of Schmidt's Selected Poems 1972-1997, Sebastian Barker said:
`There is enough love, attention to detail and creative energy in Schmidt
for us to expect something astonishing from him in the future.'
That future has arrived. The Resurrection of the Body is a truly
astonishing book.
Liberated from the constraints of sexual ambivalence and formal strategies,
these poems are the marvellous flowering of a unique, poetic intelligence.
`His work offers pleasure, argument and a complex expression of feeling' -
James Sutherland-Smith, Poetry Review
