About Seth Abramson
Seth Abramson is an american poet. Abramson has published a number of books and anthologies.

Abramson won the 2008 J. Howard and Barbara M.J. Wood Prize. Poetry editor Don Share said of Abramson's What I Have that the poem absorbs certain details but doesn't fasten upon them the way poets are tempted to do; it's not adjectival, it's not descriptive, it's not painting a kind of canvas with scenery on it, and yet those details are really fascinating.Browse all poems and texts published on Seth Abramson
