Book excerpt: “Whether he's musing on ancient mythology or silent films, quoting Homer Simpson or Pius II, following Max Von Sydow through an Ingmar Bergman film, quoting his father or reenvisioning Dickens, Carson Pytell's collection Tomorrow Everyday, Yesterday Too lives up to its title by covering as many bases as you could imagine in such a short amount of space without being scattered. The poems remain focused as the book seems to fly by then begs you to read it again.” — Zebulon Huset, Editor of Coastal Shelf “Like John Berryman's Dream Songs, Carson Pytell's Tomorrow Everyday, Yesterday Too fills the soul like foaming ocean water in a cask. Bound to our earthly lot, but infused with celestial alchemy, these poems are permeated by ardent feeling, richness of thought, and the singular turns of phrase by a master in his study cataloging the dark and the light.” — Adam Johnson, W.A.Y.D.O.H.A.A.F.E? (House of HASH, 2021) “Carson Pytell is an incredible contemporary poet. 'Tomorrow Everyday, Yesterday Too' is an ode to human existence. Touching on the topics of family, friends, work, debt, growing old, and the moments between that shape us into who we are as individuals. All searching for our own personal Towers of Babel. Yearning to leave something behind. Screaming to be heard.” — James D. Casey IV, artist, poet, founder/editor-in-chief of Cajun Mutt Press. In Carson Pytell’s Tomorrow Everyday, Yesterday Too, love and death are like bookends that contain a cajoling breeze and a winding loneliness, a yearning that does not relent and a searing insight. As one of his poems points out, “One cannot gut the wind.” But Pytell proves himself the caliber of poet who can fashion that wind into verse that challenges, blows the reader into familiar but new emotional spaces, and reminds him or her that “The heart is not to find / its own counterpart, / but its completion, which is love.” - John B. Burroughs, Ohio Beat Poet Laureate 2019-2021
