“Joel Long’s perceptively imagined poems reside in the permeable membrane of inner and outer, where the world’s events and objects are transformed by interior life. Quietly tender and keenly observed, these poems are thoughtful beauty and grace.”—Jane Hirshfield
“These poems . . . offer openings into new worlds profound familiar, and unexpected.”—Pattiann Rogers
