Dabrowski has been referred to as the "hope of Polish poetry," a "great poetic talent,"and the "inheritor of the great metaphysical tradition of poetry." All hyperbole aside, Dabrowski's work is consistently ranked as being as vital as that of Szymborska and Milosz, and he's only 30 years old. A generation younger than the New York-school infused poets found in Zephyr's anthology Carnivorous Boy Carnivorous Bird, Dabrowski signals a major shift and step forward in the contemporary world of poetry in Poland and beyond.
