"As an admirer of Eli Goldblatt’s original, groundbreaking, and beautifully crafted written work in composition, I think this focused book of his collected essays will be extremely compelling reading for people in this field."


—Russel Durst, Professor, University of Cincinnati





"Goldblatt’s perspective, his embeddedness in his place, community, and culture, and his range of topical interests is truly unique. He is a teacher, poet, essayist, activist, literacy scholar, and publisher of great importance. I don’t know anyone else whose work can simultaneously occupy so many vantage points so deeply and well."


—Paula Mathieu, Associate Professor, Boston College

He earned his PhD in composition and rhetoric at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

He has won best essay of the year awards from both College Composition and Communications and College English.
