Whatever Light Used to Be by Dan Howell

$8.00

Dan Howell’s voice rises elegant and calm through the carved surfaces of these poems. Regarding the strangeness of everyday moments with wonder, these amazing poems remind us that the broken world still lives.

– Cynthia Huntington, author of Heavenly Bodies

The marvelous poems in Whatever Light Used To Be move against the gravity of time and corrosion toward moments of ecstasy that are all the more convincing and ecstatic for their refusal to forget the gravity they momentarily overcome. These are seasoned poems, tough, disquieting and beautiful, impossible to forget.

– Alan Shaprio, author of Reel to Reel
