"[Here] is a new millennium music: part blues, part punk, part rock: all soul!"

-Terrance Hayes, Winner of the MacArthur Genius Grant" Fellowship

"Floyd writes both from and of 'a wild navigation' and beautifully delimits his territory-'[S]omething as small as a whole world / and as large as alone.' What better map of the human psyche! What the Man Seemed to Say carries us through image and sensation, through the present and the past, deftly sidestepping the too-easy traps of solipsism and abstraction. This book is solid and real and touching-an enlightening, fervent travelogue that, via Floyd's insight and stunning locutions, is as '[s]harp as a bone chip.'"

-Renée Ashley, Author of Minglements & Ruined Traveler

"David Floyd is back and here's soulful deftness to warm your table. With candor and grace-and the tarragon of formal innovation-Floyd guides us along the cliff's edge of the seasoned heart. And just when the weariness of these meticulously crafted blues threaten nameless distance, the poet saves us with a phrase: arms full of stars ablaze, heart of an accord with sturdy oaks. Thank poem-goodness for David Floyd."

-Abraham Smith, Author of One Warm Morning & Surgencies
