QuickviewO by Jared Schickling
PoetryJared Schickling, the Poetry of the imagination expansive, no master, not forms that restrict, not the commercialism of print. Not the Government of Poetry, with this an anarchistic being is where all might of the elemental as a construction without end with wisdom and magic, behold begins a future —Michael Basinski$16.00 -
QuickviewOccasion Poems by Diane Christian
PoetryOccasion poems were suggested by colleague, friend, and poet Robert Creeley, who thought it would be a good idea to have poems for various occasions made up as ink stamps, ready to imprint on a postcard and send off for occasions. Unlike occasional poems tied to specific persons and events, they have a broader human reach.$16.00 -
Quickviewocean plastic by Orchid Tierney
PoetryIt is with intuition rather than calculation that Tierney's #ocean plastic# forages, gathers and arranges. With intuition chosen over calculation, Tierney's unit of measure is a unit of matter. Responding to the pipeline with the ethics of the poetic line, Tierney's particular attention models a dwelling among that can teach both how and why we might turn the plastic we find into an ecology of ethics. —Michelle Taransky$12.00 -
QuickviewOf Some Sky by Joseph Harrington
PoetryIf it’s indeed darkest before the dawn, then we should immerse ourselves in Joseph Harrington’s Of Some Sky and hope – because it doesn’t get much darker than this. This book surveys the terrain we inhabit now (in the mid-Anthropocene) somewhere between the devil and the rising seas. —Rae Armantrout$16.00 -
QuickviewOne Year In A Paper Cinema by Travis Cebula
PoetryNobody looks in the newspaper to see what's on TV anymore. For that kind of news, we have to go to poems—specifically, Travis Cebula's pitch-perfect One Year in a Paper Cinema, whose shapely, lyrico-epigrammatic interfaces with a year's worth of TV listings in The Denver Post pull open the gauzy curtain separating ""art"" and ""life"" to reveal something at once fresh and recycled, mysteriously stochastic and predatorily pre-programmed. Almost as soon as this book was finished, the Post stopped printing this section. Thank goodness for the celerity of visionary poets! —K. Silem Mohammad$16.00 -
QuickviewOngoing Repairs to Something Significant by Linda King
PoetryLinda King’s new collection is filled with poems that reflect on their own making, considering the rules of narrative with wit, subtlety, and grace. Here you will find language interrogated from within its most familiar structures, singing all the while with difficult and necessary music. Her work surprises and gratifies with its syntactic denseness, its wild associative leaps. King is a poet to watch. —Kristina Marie Darling$16.00 -
QuickviewOpera House Arterial by Anne-Adele Wight
PoetryAnne-Adele Wight's new masterpiece Opera House Arterial is a fierce testimony of the power that one archetype alone can create––the Opera House. Part trickster, part behemoth, part lover, part spy, part friendly cadaver––like "sparrow bones in a cup." Or "a mug of phosphorus."––Debrah Morkun$16.00 -
QuickviewOponearth by Timothy David Orme

Quickviewor, The Whale by Sherry Robbins
Poetry“Into this first and oldest cradle / I invite you, reader.” from “The Fossil Whale” by Sherry Robbins. “me in in in / in the boat / of my body” from “The Chase – First Day” by Sherry Robbins. This is her book of poetry. I read her returning to this poetry.

QuickviewOther Maidens by Toti O’Brien
PoetryIn Other Maidens, Toti O’Brien masterfully choreographs shifting perceptions of self and the other in a soulful dance with reality. These intuitive, courageous poems explore the elusive and illusive core of grief and wonder, fear and joy, estrangement and intimacy. —William O’Dal$16.00 -
QuickviewOtherwise Known as Home by Tim Wood
PoetryThe poems shimmering in this volume represent an intense and vertiginous new beginning of the sonnet, erupting from the site of "end words." Tim Wood's re-embarkations are thrilling. I hesitate to impose metaphors on a work of art that stands on its own terms, but something related to time travel might turn attention in the right direction. —Lyn Hejinian$16.00 -
QuickviewOvertures by Ted Pearson
New Releases, PoetryThe standard acrostic submitted to pre-preparation's careful, reticent, insistently epigraphic procedures; the cenobitic playhouse accompaniment in blue sphere’s black expanse; the constant opening of open and uncountable dialog in analog: ladies and gentlemen and all the swung and transient surround, it's nobody but Ted Pearson! – Fred Moten$18.00
