![]() Quote of the Day
Carcanet has always been the place to look for considerations of purely literary and intellectual merit. Its list relies on the vision and the faith and the energy of people who care about books, and values. It is thus as rare as it is invaluable.

Merrill Moore remains the most prolific sonneteer in English – The New Yorker once estimated his output at 50,000 ‘fourteeners’. As this selection makes clear, the best of these are extremely fine and original – memorable, well-turned, witty, strange. For his obsessive sifting and valuable act of recovery, the editor David R. Slavitt deserves a prize, but the greatest reward for his efforts is, delightfully, ours.” – David Yezzi, The New Criterion
