“These are masterful poems capable of being formally rich and elegantly moving, but also, at times, very funny. Though what truly distinguishes these poems is Daniel Fitzpatrick’s profound sense of wonder, whether considering art, nature, or matters of faith. If the world is going to be saved by beauty, we need more poems like these, poems awake to the light and darkness of a given moment and written with a unique beauty of their own.”
