About The Last Note Becomes Its Listener:

"Jeffrey Morgan's new collection hums in a sweeping timbre filled with consolations and intimacies....Turn after remarkable turn, Morgan's poems fill the page with music and the longing for music in the spaces between."
—Oliver de la Paz

"The Last Note Becomes Its Listener translates the world into language with astonishing precision and clarity, offering a vision that's peculiarly hyperfocused...This is a wise and playful and moving book—startling in its powers of observation, lush with postmodern shimmering."
—Wayne Miller
