QuickviewImposture Notebooks By Lance Phillips
Poetry“Traversed the grass... ” begins Lance Phillips' Imposture Notebook and aptly so. This book enacts traversal (and trans versality) in so many ways, it's difficult to keep count. Add another entry to the heroic, folded tradition of post-autobiography scrolling from Hejinian-Whitman to Howe-Dickinson and back. At once comprising intensely personal concretions, sweeping, almost hierophantic abstractions, and meditations on the places where such ends of the language spectrum must meet, Phillips' Notebook is a welcome record of many names writ in aether.” —Aaron McCollough$16.00 -
QuickviewIn Other Days by Roger Craik
New Releases, Poetry“Every moment of Roger Craik's In Other Days is an event of inviolable music, golden, as the best of music always is, with both finitude and duration. And I use the word “golden” most particularly here, as these poems--whether urban or pastoral, whether fond or furious--impart a radiance to their idiom identical to that burnished radiance we find in the paintings of Samuel Palmer or the enigmas of Elgar. Craik adventures far beyond pathos and nostalgia, into something like a prospect of eternity. I am both thrilled and consoled by this poetry.” —Donald Revell$16.00 -
QuickviewIn Paran by Larissa Shmailo
Poetry“From under the El in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, to her window seat on the Harlem Line, Shmailo is right on track with poetry that dances with love, death and desire. The proverbial urban poet, Shmailo masterfully mixes the beauty and the gritty, in New York City.” — Doug Holde$16.00 -

QuickviewIn the Country of the Peregrine by Wade Stevenson

Quickviewincidental music by Jane Joritz-Nakagawa
Poetryincidental music is attentive to the deep formal traditions of poetry in the western tradition: the sonnet, the pantoum, the cinquain, the rondeau, the triolet, the ghazal. And yet, as Jane Joritz-Nakagawa well knows, these traditions get their strength in how they intertwine with the contemporary. Incidental music is both innovative and inclusive of all that poetry can do. —JULIANA SPAHR$16.00 -
QuickviewInconsequentia by Dereks Henderson & Pollard
PoetryIn this sequence, the collaboration between word and reader, writer and responder, life and death, Derek and Derek, is an invitation, a dance card in which the dancer and the danced become not a duet but a crowd of possibility—“the shining market of us." —Eleni Sikelianos$16.00 -
QuickviewInside Narratives by Ethan Saul Bull
PoetryThere is a way of seeing expressed in Ethan Bull's poems—complex mimetic waves drifting from modernity, rippling through memory as a person or a state or flora. Proper nouns exploded, rent and mended—sometimes on the very same page. — Joseph Mains$16.00 -
QuickviewInside The Walls of My Own House: The Complete Dark Shadows [of My Childhood] Book 2 by Tony Trigilio
Poetry“The Complete Dark Shadows (of My Childhood) feels meditative, organic, and weighty far beyond what one would anticipate from a poem about a blooper-ridden ’60s TV show” (Rain Taxi).$16.00 -
QuickviewInterstellar Theme Park by Jack Skelley
New Releases, Poetry“Despite my dislike of seeing my own name, you’re really a good writer – never what’s expected.” —Kathy Acker$22.00 -
QuickviewInterstitial by Sean Patrick Hill
PoetryIn Interstitial, Sean Patrick Hill lovingly renders the mundane into a world that is (quite literally) on fire. His poems are taut, perverse, and terrifying. As with all good poems, these leave the page to hound and haunt the reader. — Alan May,$16.00 -
QuickviewInventories by Paul Hogan
PoetryA forceful, unapologetic exploration of the masculinity of creative impulse. Hogan looks at nature, life, disparate moments, mysticism, and fatherhood not with rose-colored glasses but with the obsidian eyes of a realist unafraid to be caught submitting to his poetic instincts. Inventories is a work of great relevance, power, and importance. —Gary Earl Ross$16.00
