Comments about Jim Wayne Miller

MAXINE KUMIN: "I am grateful to Mr. Miller for the care with which he uses words."

ROBERT MORGAN: Jim Miller is "both bard and prophet," he "writes at once of Appalachia and the planet."

FRED CHAPPELL: "...if it were not for Miller, the Appal lit movement might have foundered before it got started."

SHARYN McCRUMB: "Jim Wayne Miller, one of Appalachia's brightest and best-loved poets, belongs to that rare literary species: the writer who is admired by the average reader as well as by the academic community. Robert Frost was another such poet, and Miller is often compared to him."

ROBERT MORGAN "Clearing Newground " (full essay online)
