Praise for As If It Matters
"Eamon Grennan's poems are like late 20th century verbal equivalents of 17th century Dutch paintings. How luminously they capture the brimming fullness of daily life, how scrupulously they come to terms with the complex reality of the limited, given world, how radiantly they clarify 'the daily/ineluctable clutter of our lives.' These poems shine and matter."--Edward Hirsch
"This new collection contains some of his [Eamon's Grennan's] most telling work, and with so fine a poet that is saying a great deal."--W.S. Merwin
"With a grace and precision such as come only with a perfect ear, Eamon Grennan welcomes us into the midst of that place where thoughts and sensations somehow magically come together and coexist as one. What he shows us there is now grave, now playful, but never less than life-enhancing."--Amy Clampitt
