QuickviewLost Poet, Four Plays By Jesse Glass
DramaIn this selection of plays, Jesse Glass‘ imagination rages, leaps and staggers from the Challenger disaster of 1986 to the hallucinated lucubrations of Thomas Holley Chivers (friend and rival of Edgar Allan Poe), and manages to cover the arrival of a cosmic, sexual vermiform lemure of the Kabbalistic Bohu-Tohu in a reportorial manner worthy of Philip Glass on N.P.R., while ringing the changes on a young man’s sexual angst in the face of the ambiguities of the Summerland.$20.00 -
QuickviewLove at the End by Wade Stevenson
New Releases, PoetryIn the formal immediacy of these new poems, Wade Stevenson practices elegy in the imperative mode, in the faithful idioms of amazement. And so it happens that he is vividly able to address evidence and events of loss in their proper bodies, in a tender, mutual anguish. Along the way, he discovers wild decorums of love in the embrace of annihilation. These poems are a consolation beyond consolation, an unprecedented heaven on earth. —Donald Revell$16.00 -
QuickviewMadstones by Corey Mesler
Poetry“These poems-- at times dark and troubling, at other times passionate and openhearted--are the work of a very talented poet. Madstones is a book worthy of a smart and attentive audience.” —Ron Rash$16.00 -
QuickviewMainstream by Michael Magee
PoetryRight from the start, Magee’s work bristles with the spirit of improvisation. Everything about it pops: classic poetry chops, a serious sense of humor, unabashed rawness. Mainstream is thrilling because it can turn in any direction at any time, moving effortlessly from wacked units of thought turning inside out to tender moments of highly focused nonsense and song that get, paradoxically, straight to the point. --Drew Gardner$16.00 -
QuickviewMaps for Jackie by Jason Labbe
PoetryJason Labbe’s wonderfully moving and inventive collection Maps for Jackie is an open journey into desire and its fathomlessness. Though the poems dislocate between something and nothing, it’s a loving ride where “waking finds / morning the inmost warp / in space time.” The book is filled with impeccable craft. It’s a terrific work and worth the trip. I’m on board. —PETER GIZZI$16.00 -
QuickviewMarine Layer by Kit Robinson
Poetry, SuperstarsKit Robinson convects his frontal systems through Marine Layer, happy to be enveloped in its fog while somehow always letting its poems breathe. Information sizzles in these data dispatches from the twenty-first century: poetry as a news feed that knows just enough to trust what happens next, lifting the fog—for us all—on the movable things of song. —Miles Champion$16.00 -
QuickviewMasks by Victor Coleman
PoetryVictor Coleman has played with and explored the subtleties of Oulipian procedures for many years, bringing his own imagination and impeccable ear to the revivifying possibilities arrangement offers poetry in lieu of the predictable outpourings of “identity” in the Commercial Poetry Product. With Masks he has reached a point that leaves you breathless in the face of mastery. —Michael Boughn$16.00 -
QuickviewMeet Me at the Happy Bar by Steve Langan
PoetryI'm consistently jealous of Steve Langan's small-a absurdist accuracy, not to mention his unfailing ability to dredge gorgeous song from the hum of the normal. Meet Me at the Happy Bar is sharp, sad, sassy, and frighteningly alive. —Graham Foust$16.00 -
QuickviewMemeWars by Aldon Lynn Nielsen With E. Ethelbert Miller
Critical Thinking, New Releases, Poetry$22.00As you begin Memewars, think of Ethelbert Miller’s leading questions as melodies, recognizable tunes, and Nielsen’s responses as harmolodic extensions, waxing nostalgic, and just as moving, just as important, playing all the changes on a prolific career and life in music and writing. —Tyrone Williams
