Momentous Inconclusions: The Life and Work of Larry Eigner provides engaging and wide-ranging consideration of the poet's prolific adventure in poetry.--Patrick James Dunagan, Rain Taxi

The first book on a major, though underdiscussed, late twentieth-century poet, this work is original and timely. Momentous Inconclusions is thorough, well-constructed, and coherent, and it accomplishes two of the most fundamental goals of such a volume: it makes me want to read more Eigner, and it makes me a better reader and teacher of his work.--Alan Golding, author of From Outlaw to Classic: Canons in American Poetry
