In five previous books and with a career's worth of accolades, Waldrep has established himself as one of the most daring, erudite, and accomplished poets of his generation. This book will be an event, not only for his many fans, but for poetry as a whole.
Waldrep's previous collections have received regular positive attention from such places as Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, The New York Times, The Huffington Post, and The Rumpus.
Testament was written over 12 trance-like days while the author was in residence at Hawthornden Castle, UK. The castle itself is a feature of the book, which will appeal to the UK audience. Many contemporary British/Irish poets have also stayed there.
There’s been a resurgence of interest in the long poem in America in recent years.
