Praise for Years, Months, and Days "Elegant, spare, and quiet, and, like the hymns these poems transfigure, like a prayer set to music." --Casey Plett, author of On Community and Little Fish "Vespers. Devotional. Breathtakingly sparse. Elegant. Wondrous. Moving. Rare.

" --Kirby, author of Poetry Is Queer "[Years, Months, and Days] is carried by [Hathaway's] obvious respect for [his] sponsoring material and by [his] superb ear." --New York Times "Exquisite . deeply resonant . There's often a metaphysical cast to his forthright observations, which makes them both evocative and poignant." --Toronto Star "[Luke Hathaway's] small and beautiful book should be on your bedside table even if it is as heaped as mine. Just 4" by 5" and fewer than 70 pages, the book consists of untitled, spare, and simply-worded poems which evoke the cycles of life, the seasons, and human longing for meaning and connection. The poems expand in your head, opening your mind to matters beyond the day-to-day." --Arc Poetry Magazine "The poems are tiny, seeds only, bare of flourish, each containing the germ of an idea so large the mind can hardly hold it .

If you seek to tune those numbered days of yours to what is most frightfully vital, you might carry this book in your satchel awhile. It's tiny enough to conceal in a large pocket, but it thunders, and its seeds carry fields." --Image "Singular . stirring . invites pauses and contemplation. It is [Hathaway's] keen sense of what is essential that guides . these meditations." --Hamilton Review of Books "An elegant little book .

[Hathaway] crafts pithy yet piercing poems that echo in the mind." --Canadian Literature.
