Losses of Life is comprised of two long poems:
The first, Child of Man, derived from Emerson's journals, letters, and essays, is an elegy for the death of Emerson's son Waldo.
The second, Stations, is a sequence of poems exploring losses of a different sort.
Eric Hoffman's sharp-eyed and agile poems are teeming with surprise
(Patrick Pritchett)
and
deserve to be better and more widely-known (Eileen Tabios).
The quality of the verse... is undeniable; there are great pleasures to be had in Hoffman's lines (Jason Ranek).
His poetry manifests a restless and manifold creativity, a creativity Emerson himself would have saluted (Anthony Rudolf).
