Jared Carter Poetry

Personal and powerful poems... Carter is an exciting new voice... he most certainly deserves to be known here [in the UK]. Roland John, Poetry Nation Review

He writes about the edges of life, the borders between music and language, the twilights of time. Readers who approach these barricades... will come away with a greater capacity to see in this dim light, to hear and appreciate "the murmuring of things." David Lee Garrison, Southern Indiana Review

Les Barricades Mystérieuses is filled with beautiful images which resonate through their repetition and reflect like an echo... The poems exist in a world where "no one ever sees anything, no one knows." Jough Dempsey, Poetry X

The brilliance... is obvious from the first page. It is an enormous accomplishment, crafted not for fame or money, but to create something meaningful, beautiful, enduring. David Hackett, Daily Journal
