James Agee

At their best, Agee’s poems combine the density and ambiguity of the New Criticism with a supercharged self-scrutiny, inflected by Agee’s boyhood Anglo-Catholicism and the Bible. --David Yezzi, The drama of promise, The New Criterion, April 2009, review of James Agee: Selected Poems, edited by Andrew Hudgins
