"Too much of Carver's 'poetry' is not poetry. As if unaware and incapable of the essential powers of rhythm, Carver wrote verse that was too often little more than [a] mere funny-looking arrangement of lines on a page. But not even rhythm could have resurrected some of these lines from the dead....To regard this stuff as poetry is to buy into and further the lie that poetry is the dessicated and self-absorbed preciosity that today commonly bears its name....The problem, in the end, is not that this is not poetry. The problem is that it is not much of anything else, either."

Nick Tosches, Bookforum, Fall 1998
