"Flesh and Blood," the fifth collection by C. K. Williams, was awarded the 1987 National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry.

Hirsch added: "Like Berryman's "Dream Songs" or Lowell's "Notebooks," Mr. Williams's short poems are shapely yet open-minded and self-generative, loosely improvisational though with an underlying formal necesity."
