Reviews"[Harrison] equates writing poetry with creating cave paintings or petroglyphs, so intrinsically human is the urge to express the life of the soul, and his poems do make the temporal timeless." -- Booklist, starred review "This is poetry worth loving, hating, and fighting over." -- New York Times Book Review "It is hard-boiled poetry, some of the best of its kind, and one is not surprised to know that Harrison has written very tough novels... His poetic vision is at the heart of it all." -- Harper's "An untrammeled renegade genius... Here is a poet talking to you instead of around himself, while doing absolutely brilliant and outrageous things with language." -- Publishers Weekly "Harrison's essential honesty is deeply affecting... a moving body of work." -- Library Journal "This brilliant poetry from an essential poet... will speak to you on a multitude of levels." -- Outside Magazine

Starred Review from Booklist : "[A] landmark collection." Jim Harrison (1937-2016) is an American literary icon, famous for his novellas Legends of the Fall and Brown Dog, and his novels Dalva, Farmer, and Sundog. At the bedrock of Harrison's success was his lifelong, enduring love of poetry. Over a fifty year writing career, in addition to his prolific work as a fiction writer, screenwriter, and beloved food critic, he published fourteen volumes of original poetry--now presented in this three-volume set. Jim Harrison: Complete Poems: Limited Edition Box Set features the entirety of Harrison's poetic oeuvre in handsome hardbacks, organized by distinct eras. Print run release limited to 750 copies. This tour de force also features a thoughtful and thought-provoking essay by a major literary figure for each volume: Colum McCann, Vol. I Joy Williams, Vol II John Freeman, Vol III Woven throughout these three volumes are Harrison's legendary passions and appetites, his love songs and lamentations, and a clarion call to pay attention. As Joy Williams notes in her essay to Volume II: "I've always loved Jim Harrison's poetry--so full of itself, so direct and hungry and angered and awed. I think of him in many ways as a religious poet...he felt that only in poetry had he found 'the right pen' to write what he wanted to say."
