National Book Award Finalist
Book of the Year honors from Publishers Weekly

In By the Numbers Richardson dips into an expansive repertoire of approaches and shows excellent command, as he illuminates the commute between the ordinary and the mystical.’ —National Book Award finalist, Judges’ Citation

“James Richardson is…a poet who earned his reputation as a master of imagery and concision.” —The Christian Science Monitor
