"With each new collection of poems, Samual Hazo explores themes of mortality and love, passion and art, courage and grace in a style that is unmistakably his own. In As They Sail, he writes with equal feeling and clarity about political and artistic figures and the complex synchronicity between life and art. He is extremely interested in the wonderment and discovery that emerges in the act of writing, in the movement toward wisdom that results from expression of feeling."--BOOK JACKET. "Whether Hazo is writing about Nixon, Hemingway, Brando, or simply about walking in France, he finds the essence of language that gives rise to an emotional response."--BOOK JACKET.
