Mooney is one of Canada's best young poets, and one of my personal favourites. It's great to see him getting international recognition for his excellent work!

- The Meeting Point by Lucy Caldwell, Faber
- The Evolution of Bruno Littlemore by Benjamin Hale, Atlantic Books
- Folk by Jacob McArthur Mooney, McClelland & Stewart
