Series editor Andrew Hudgins says that "a thoughtful elegiac voice pervades Matthew Graham's A World Without End. A small sense of mourning arises even in his celebration of deep and continuing love because he knows love, in the fullness of time, inevitably ends, even if the lovers never falter in their loving. Stately without stiffness, thoughtful without pretense, humorous without indecorousness, clear without simplicity. A pleasure in every line." With his latest book, Matthew Graham provides a travelogue to a place invented, a country familiar but unexpected. These poems describe by turns a childhood infused with adult longing (collecting fireflies in a jelly jar becomes a precognitive exercise), an adulthood choked with memories (daylight savings time becomes an excuse to invoke the past), and the sweet redemption of love (passing time provides the medium and grace for mistakes to be, finally, forgiven: "Time turns us all ... toward the inevitable struggle between opening and closing, between the waiting and the going somewhere").
