I Never Understood Religion Until I Learned Your Name. Poetry by Hunter Hazelton. 56 pages. Paperback. May 18th, 2021. ISBN 978-1-948800-93-8..

I Never Understood Religion Until I Learned Your Name is a poetry collection written from the long-distance heart. Spanning across the pond and through celestial miles, Hunter Hazelton unravels a semi-autobiographical exploration of first queer love, the intensity of desire, and the existence of God in a heteronormative world. Despite miles of longing, these poems chronologize a story of faith, tragedy, and self-exploration that spans any place and time.
