“Donald Mace Williams’ Wolfe is a flawless epic, and in turning the legend of Beowulf into a critique of man’s encroachment on nature, it has a chance at ringing the bell of the current zeitgeist.” —Timothy Green, editor, Rattle
“It is a fine thing to see Donald Mace Williams's superb narrative poem,Wolfe, reprinted.Set on an isolated ranch toward the end of the Frontier days, Wolfe is part-Western, part-horror tale, but all epic in its imagination. This new book restores this fascinating work to the canon of contemporary narrative verse.”—Dana Gioia, former California state poet laureate and former chairperson, National Endowment for the Arts and author of Poetry as Enchantment: And Other Essays.
“Donald Mace Williams proves to be both an able interpreter and a congenial guide to a place we’re all destined to inhabit, if we’re fortunate. For the young and the middle-aged, for those beyond middle age, Being Ninety is a welcome gift.” —Joe Holley, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and author of the Houston Chronicle’s “Native Texan” column
