    • Richard Jones’s second collection is an ambitious, symphonic group of poems about grief, loss, and human separateness. Jones writes in the rhythms of natural conversation and with a relaxed tone, using narrative and a sharp eye for detail to create poems rich with parable-like, aphoristic wisdom. By ordering moments of mundane experience to reveal uncommon perception, Jones goes beneath the superficial to explore daily epiphanies that might otherwise be overlooked.
