QuickviewMind Over Matter by Gloria Frym
Critical Thinking, SuperstarsHow does the present imprint itself on language, on poetry? Gloria Frym's Mind Over Matter shows us that: the outlines of the endless wars, the credit default swaps.

QuickviewMORPHEUS: A BILDUNGSROMAN by John Kinsella
Fiction, SuperstarsMorpheus has its origins in a novel John Kinsella worked on in his late teens — a time of transition between adolescence and adulthood, but not a time before he had at least glimpsed the contours of the vast, interconnecting literary project that was to be his lifelong pursuit. An amalgam of realism and fantasy, of fiction, poetry, and drama, the project limned the phantasmagoric yet self-questioning and disciplined emotional terrain that has so captivated and intrigued his many current readers worldwide.$22.00 -
QuickviewNine by Anne Tardos

QuickviewPERSONAL EFFECTS by Ted Pearson
Poetry, SuperstarsTime travels aphoristically in short hops, seen from long distance, with words as object lessons, in Ted Pearson’s refulgent work. “These annotations mean the world” in the most personal and impersonal sense. But the “eternal present” affords scant comfort, as quatrains slant away or sentences shimmer over the depth of existence. —Alan Bernheimer$16.00 -
QuickviewPoetic Architecture by Kent Johnson
Superstars...In other words, and at the risk of sounding extreme, I strongly encourage readers to ignore this ridiculous piece of attention-seeking dilettantish drivel. Now, let's get on with the real work. —Kenneth Goldsmith$16.00 -
