Alex Missall's debut poetry collection A Harvest of Days offers a contemplative journey through nature, memory, and the self. Missall's voice is both philosophical and deeply grounded, drawing on influences from Eastern philosophy to modernist precision. This collection touches on love and its past, the cancer battle of the poet's mother, and his own navigation of a dual-diagnosis condition. Whether observing deer at twilight, sitting beside a failing campfire, or walking rain-soaked trails with family, the poems in A Harvest of Days offer readers a space to pause, reflect, and rediscover beauty in the flux of time. Perfect for readers of Mary Oliver, Wendell Berry, and contemporary nature writing, A Harvest of Days is a testament to the healing power of attention and the quiet wisdom found in returning, again and again, to the world around us.
