About Lost Spiral of Years:

"Reeves Keyworth's . Lost Spiral of Year:s is a surprising, delightful collection that masterfully weaves voice, place, and time to create a vernacular .that is wholly the poet's own. Compelling, sometimes astounding characters drive the poems, casting 'an ancient· spell going in circles at the fingertips,' as in the poem 'Before Marriage.' The poems are intricate and complex; but not discouraging, intelligent yet playful, and ultimately pmyerful. Whether lyrical braitjs or narrative conversations, the poems reveal 'a new and ancient air,' as in the poem 'Duet,' leaving. us suddenly world-wise and full of wonder—in a word: breathless."
