"Ryan Wilson's unsettling debut collection The Stranger World is filled with poems of menace and promise, surprise and sorrow, tempered by gentle humor and always tuned to a fine music. The long poem 'Authority' reads like a masterpiece of modern horror. The deeply psychological 'Xenia' is a minor miracle of a poem. These pages contain 'real shores across imagined seas . . . where black suns set, ' where the poet meditates on 'that present unity / of absences the living move among.' Each page of The Stranger World yields a new delight. Wilson proves himself a worthy heir to Anthony Hecht with this remarkable, disarming, and genuinely moving book. Seek it out." -- Ernest Hilbert
