Before and After cover

Before and After, his fourth volume, is his most powerful collection to date—with poems so short and direct they hit home like a knife to the heart.

In Before and After, Smith effectively captures the intimate life of one family—in all its courage, deceit, misery, madness, love, revelation, and rage—and transforms it to record the life of the American family.

"Each of these short and stunning poems secures Smith's place as one of the most original and captivating voices on the current scene." "A glittering, forceful collection."
