QuickviewDelaware Memoranda by Richard Owens
PoetryDelaware Memoranda is a lush crosscurrent marked by history's flicker and memory's flame. In these buoyant illuminations, language's intricate shadows and solids reveal and carve at transformations in etymology to create a dialogic swerve that is the person, that is the conversation, that can neither be nor step in the same river twice. This book is tougher than any blurb. —Kyle Schlesinger$16.00 -
QuickviewDeparted Quantities: (A) Quantum Epic by John Dolis
PoetryIn Departed Quantities: (A) Quantum Epic, John Dolis leads us by candlelight down into the rough basement of language, where a “painter in the painting paints / a painting of a painting in the dark.” Dolis’s richly allusive, multivocal language for vision collapses the distance between self and other “such that human being might be more / than we deserve, though infinitely less / than we can dream.” —Tony Trigilio$16.00 -
QuickviewDerrida’s In/Voice by Chris Tysh
PoetryThere is immense talent here — Chris Tysh just gets better and better. With multiple registers and citational energy, the archive is exploded and transformed: we find references to poetry, film, revolution, politics, and philosophy, all effortlessly braided and made dynamic as they speak to one another. With perfectly pitched music, and impeccable form, Derrida’s In/Voice discloses and complicates the knotted conversation between hard and soft power. It’s an awesome book. — Peter Gizzi$16.00 -
QuickviewDescent of the Dolls Part I by Jeffery Conway, Gillian McCain, and David Trinidad
Poetry, SuperstarsDante’s Inferno meets the 1967 movie Valley of the Dolls in this collaborative descent into a Hollywood camp classic. Over ten years in the writing, the first installment of this epic poetic conversation sees poets Jeffery Conway, Gillian McCain, and David Trinidad pair up with their respective Virgil-esque guides: Frank O’Hara, Sharon Tate, and Anne Sexton. Our three poets follow the film’s heroines—Anne, Neely, and Jennifer—backstage into the murky circles of Showbiz and PoBiz. Down, down, down they go. Anything can happen: Allen Ginsberg kicks a talented poet out of the show, Joan Crawford makes a drunken visitation, the heads of ambitious M.F.A. poetry students roll!$18.00 -
QuickviewDevil-Fictions by Lance Phillips
New Releases, PoetryLance Phillips is an exacting, brilliant, graceful poet. His Blakean vision of contraries (opening the self, seeing in an oppositional mode) and the sources of the human is nothing short of stunning ("What the sleep garners // Ghost in // Certain insignia:"). ...This is a stunning, necessary book. —Joseph Lease$18.00 -
QuickviewDie Die Dinosaur by Michael Sikkema
PoetryCandy and rust abound in Michael Sikkema's new collection of poems. Die Die Dinosaur is a series of short psychobilly stanzas that run from humorous to poignant and across the growth and decay of both the natural and man-made worlds. This book looks to the future and its possibilities even if that possibility is probably our own extinction. —Kenyataa JP Garcia$16.00 -
QuickviewDirected by Lilly Obscure by Dana Curtis
New Releases, PoetryThis book is full of visionary poetics, of poems which stare into various sorts of suns and films and pseudo-biographies; it is full of lenses, like scattered raindrops on windshields. But essentially it is a mad dance with imagination and fear and eros and error. —Bin Ramke,$18.00 -
QuickviewDisapparitions by Joseph Harrington
New Releases, PoetryJoseph Harrington is a maestro of hybrid form. His latest book, Disapparitions, collages politically urgent poetry and prose with an array of sampled and remixed voices that speak from the ghost-margins of our historical moment. —Tony Trigilio$18.00 -
QuickviewDisappearing Address by Simone Muench and Philip Jenks
Poetry$16.00here’s wit here — “Dear Nothing” begins “why’d you have to cut out & make everything come back,” “Dear Obtuse” begins “Be straight with me” — but the best of the poems revel in novel images and a diction for which the only possible term is “hothouse gorgeous.” —Robert Archambeau

QuickviewDisparate Magnets by Nico Vassilakis
PoetryDisparate Magnets presents the scintillating variables of time and its complex philosophical relationship with experiential space. Your guide is the inimitable Nico Vassilakis who cajoles, beckons and posits. The coordinates are pulsations of music, staccato intensities—syntax is unraveled in each set. Morton Feldman floats through this work as the simultaneities build. I feel the glee of ontological recognition reading his book. —Brenda Iijima$16.00 -

QuickviewDistance by Tom Clark
Poetry, Superstars"One of the reasons why language is so sick right now and cliché-ridden and lame and boring and laid-out, and about to go to sleep, is because there aren't a thousand Tom Clarks. If I were writing a prescription right now, you know, if I had my shiny thing here, a stethoscope around my neck, that's the prescription I'd write. Take one thousand Tom Clarks before going to bed.” —Edward Dorn$16.00
