Editorial Review of Hard Evidence


Few poets of Timothy Liu`s generation are better known or more widely celebrated. Each of his books has been widely reviewed, and critics single him out as a master of language and, in Marilyn Hacker`s words, as `a poet of eros in all its guises.` Gay and Asian-American, Liu stands by nature outside the mainstream and brings to his poetry a radical independence and ambition that can transform his work into fire storms of conviction and insight. Hard Evidence is by far his most ambitious book yet, bringing to language a wild delight and assertiveness that make these poems among the freshest and most innovative of this or any decade.

Review Summary: Finding manifestations of holiness in earthly things
Review: Written by Timothy Liu, editor of "Word of Mouth: An Anthology of Gay American Poetry", Hard Evidence is a unique and original collection of free-form verse concerning such matters as finding manifestations of holiness in earthly things, gay sexuality, and the cruel legacy of the virus that causes AIDS. Hard evidence is eye-opening, thought-provoking poetry that flows from page to page, almost as if all part of one grand poem. Binoculars left in the backseat/of your car. Tread marks leading/to a flattened toad with flies/crawling over it. Those pagodas/in the distance somehow made/a difference - joss sticks stuck/in giant urns burnishing in the air.
