QuickviewPetrarchan by Kristina Marie Darling
PoetryKristina Marie Darling's Petrarchan uses ideas of the fragment, the unsaid, and the unknown to gesture towards her own passionate syntax. It seeks the person in Petrarch's humanism. —Sean Singer$16.00 -
QuickviewPHARMAKON (A CASE HISTORY) by Kristina Marie Darling
PoetryPHARMAKON is a rattling collection. Laced with pinching, dark detail, the tinge of gone, resonant trinkets, and a seasoned sense of loss, this book dustlessly describes the bewilderment of being, being not, and the feeling that comes with those. —Emily Toder$16.00 -
QuickviewPhoems for Mobil Vices by Rich Murphy

QuickviewPickles & Jams by Cris Cheek
PoetryIn Pickles & Jams, cris cheek exposes the very membranes that lie between the sensed-real of the culturally dominant and the barely-sensed hyper-real of the culturally emergent. His poetics (initially spawned and tested in Briton) isn’t of an “epiphany” variety, but rather is borne of a sabre-ready constructivist process, whereby the jettisoning of American Capitalist values is at a premium. —Rodrigo Toscano$16.00 -

QuickviewPlease Do Not Feed the Ghost By Peter Ramos
PoetryThese poems by Peter Ramos stage incidents of arrested breath. Diegetic scenes---a mid-century interior, a cocktail party, a clinic, an airport, and everywhere the glow of television---so embroil a psychological subject as to mirror the difficult weather that divides labor from leisure life in the caesuras of time and space.— Roberto Tejada$16.00 -
QuickviewPOEM FOR THE UNBORN| NOTES TO THE GREATEST GENERATION by Chuck Richardson
PoetryThe hip thing these days is to be a poet and write fiction. It is not the hip thing these days to be a fiction writer and write poetry. The former brings possible public reward and greater numbers of readers; the latter brings no public reward and notice but by a few. That is the surface reason this book of poetry--a single dark, weird, shattering poem, really--by the singular fiction writer Chuck Richardson might trigger curiosity and attention. —Kent Johnson$16.00 -

QuickviewPOEMS: now and then by Edric Mesmer
PoetryThese poems fall all too neatly into two sections, the eponymous “now” and “then.” I feel the “now” poems, all from the early months of 2020, share a returning-to with the “then” poems, some of which were written as long as 20 years ago. That they have come together so squarely—so circularly—(at least to me), speaks to a sympathy between then and now. I hope that the reader will also find this to be true. — Edric Mesmer, May 2020$16.00 -
