Writes Colette Inez of Figman’s Big Spring, “Meditative, playful, sensual, and witty, ELLIOT FIGMAN’S poems offer us insights and mysteries that veer from the cool, precise ruminations on loss to lyrical intensities of joy… What begins in an exploration of sorrow and restraint ends in resonance and amplitude, all the while acknowledging an unbiased universe. It is exhilarating to read these evolved and varied poems of transformation and love.” These are spare, airy poems that speak quietly about loud things.

ELLIOT FIGMAN was born and raised in the Brinx and was educated at Oberlin College and the University of Massachusetts. He Taught in Massachusetts and Brooklyn before coming to Poets & Writers where he now serves as Executive Director. A recipient of a New York Foundation for the Arts Poetry Fellowship, he has published his work Pequod Poetry, TriQurterly, and other literary journals. He lives in Manhattan with his wife, Ella.
