In The Dream Was the Wound, Joshua M Sutton returns to the landscape of loss, where love decays, faith falters, and memory refuses to rest. These poems move through ruined homes, hollow mornings, and the fragile aftermath of devotion, asking what remains when forgiveness fails and tenderness turns to ruin.

Sutton's voice is clear and mournful, his language pared to bone. Each poem is a confession carved from silence, a reckoning with grief that no prayer can soothe. Through the wreckage of faith, love, and time, he searches for a language equal to survival.

For readers drawn to the raw intimacy of Anne Carson, the stillness of Mark Strand, and the emotional candor of Tracy K. Smith, The Dream Was the Wound is a meditation on how love breaks and what remains when it does.
