An important addition to the body of Ignatow's work, one that reveals a poet devoted to his fellow writers and to an art that must have seemed to him an obscure, futile desire at times. Ultimately the measure of a collection like this is whether or not it sends its readers back to the poetry. Time and time again Talking Together does just this." - South Atlantic Quarterly "The U.S. Postal Service should issue a stamp to commemorate Ignatow, for no man, whether poet or politician, has used the mail with such diligence and dedication.... Talking Together is candid, revealing, opinionated, and sensitive." - Ohioana Quarterly"
