"A joyful love of life shines through brilliantly in Tim Suermondt's The World Doesn't Know You. Whether the speaker of the poem is spreading tar on a roof with his father, envisioning Sinatra spurned by a lover, or wearing a Mets cap in a cathedral, the tone is consistently appealing: charmed and charming. The love poems to his wife are written with enormous feeling and no sentimentality. Not a word is out of place in this book and Suermondt's voice is equal to the vast range of people and places encountered throughout the collection."-John Skoyles, Author of Suddenly It's Evening: Selected…mehr

Not a word is out of place in this book and Suermondt's voice is equal to the vast range of people and places encountered throughout the collection."-John Skoyles, Author of Suddenly It's Evening: Selected Poems "You will marvel at the poems in Tim Suermondt's new collection the way you would marvel at a spring bubbling up from God-knows-where with a water so sweet and clear that you can't help but cup your hands and drink deeply. Poem after poem in The World Doesn't Know You brims with exuberant, colloquial, big-hearted insight. Soon you realize that these are Suermondt's psalms, his praise-songs and love-songs for the lives we manage to eke out of a world that intermingles hopes and fears, glories and misery, and gives us every once in a while a glimpse of a band of sparrows flying overhead "in ordained ragged formation / ever so beautifully."-Fred Marchant, Author of Said Not Said
