In Ghostlight

“These are brilliantly clear poems to read and read again, poems to study and to love. Few American poets working in rhyme and meter today could write poems to match them.” ~Shane McCrae

“I have been waiting for a poet like Ryan Wilson, an unapologetic formalist whose metrical agility is precise and varied, and whose uncamouflaged rhymes unleash an intelligence that is at once wild and sensible.” ~Rodney Jones

“In Ghostlight is a major book. With it, Wilson places himself among the best poets of his generation.” ~Dana Gioia

“Fog fills the hollows of the land and the contours of Ryan Wilson’s soul in his masterful new book of poetry, In Ghostlight. This volume is a stunner, blistering quietly through shrouds of fog and mist and longing.” ~Joe Hoover, America Magazine
