Of Nikolayev’s accomplished first book, Robert Kelly writes: "Nothing escapes his formal insistence to renew. . . . A wild, generous book, full of invention." Monkey Time is the Winner of the 2001 Verse Prize, selected by Lyn Hejinian.
PHILIP NIKOLAYEV was born in Moscow, Russia, in 1966 and grew up fully bilingual in Russian and English thanks to his father, a linguist. He started out as a Russian poet, but came to the United States in 1990 to attend Harvard University, and has since been writing primarily in English. His poems have appeared in such journals as The Paris Review, Grand Street, Verse, Stand, Jacket, Salt, overland and many others across the English-speaking world. Nikolayev lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with his wife, the poet Katia Kapovich and their daughter. He is the editor and publisher of Fulcrum: an annual of poetry and aesthetics.
