Advanced Praise for Sunlight Later:
 
Jo Matthews is a master of cataloging the everyday with painterly lyricism. Waves of grief, tenderness, exhaustion, and staccatoed anxieties-these states merge into the poems' rhythmic movements. Matthews makes a music all her own. This collection holds a whole radiant, redemptive world.

In 'Sunlight Later,' Matthews illuminates the aches and wonders of aging, motherhood, and relationships with lyrical precision and disarming honesty. Her imagery is gorgeous-she captures 'the beauty of the moment, the beauty of the little things,' while simultaneously acknowledging how hard it is to pay attention amid our endless striving.
