Wonder & Wrath

A. M. Juster

Sunil Iyengar,
Los Angeles Review of Books
'No' is Juster at his most dogmatic. His 'message' is more often oblique, with any tendency to 'wrath' dissolving in oracular language and vague presentiments. Or not so vague.

Sally Thomas,
Plough
... a collection that both marvels at and rails against human frailty, against the backdrop of a fallen universe. The book’s seriousness lies in its sustained resistance to the easy way out: either to reject or embrace, without caveat, a cosmos that consists, in equal measures, of miracle and outrage.

Juster regards the common and the sacred in the everyday.

Publishers Weekly
The meditative 10th book from poet and translator Juster closely considers contemporary life and mortality, as well as the whimsical and unexpected.
