“The best poet of the younger generation, and deserving of more recognition than most of the poets in the older generation: that is, mine and the one beyond it.” — James Dickey
Tillinghast’s poems continues to stay curious and engaged, involving himself with the twists and turns of American history and how they manifest themselves in the social issues of today. Entering his ninth decade, Tillinghast addresses his own sense of mortality and personal vulnerability.
