Back Pages, Selected Poems by A.L. Nielsen
New Releases, Poetry'Artful, musical, and deceptively gentle, these poems reveal an uncompromising moral purpose. A. L. Nielsen is indeed a “stepping razor,” honed, witty and dangerous all at once. Pay attention.' —Beth Joselow$22.00 -

Back Principles: a book of spiritual fatigue by Stephen Bett
PoetryLike all Stephen Bett’s recent books, his 22nd, Back Principles: a book of spiritual fatigue, is a serial poem, “minimalist” in its poetics, and subtle enough to sustain repeated readings. The title is self-explanatory: poems journeying between poles, searching out the buddha and the christ. There are no (cheap) instant gratification I found its here. There never could be of course; it’s all journey, all the time.$16.00 -

Birds Of Tifft by Jonathan Skinner
PoetryAt once rigorous and casual, conceptual and hilarious, Birds of Tifft offers us a tour through a nature preserve reclaimed from industry. Sometimes our guide reads Tifft like an old-school naturalist, identifying flora and fauna and noting the weather; sometimes he reads it like a contemporary poet, delighting in the visual beauties and ethical ironies of a post-industrial landscape. Ultimately, however, our guide demonstrates that ecopoetics gains its power from inhabiting both positions at once. By neither idealizing nature nor demonizing industry, he shows us our own equal participation in both, and thereby animates a dialectic between “the bittern and the train/the tulip and the dump.” —Brian Teare$16.00 -

Black and Yellow Notebooks by Stephen Ratcliffe
New Releases, Poetry, SuperstarsThe wonderful momentum of Ratcliffe’s clipped language echoes the staccato footsteps of his week-long hikes. It’s walking art in the tradition of Richard Long and Hamish Fulton, yet kept in motion through a constantly shifting, ever-piercing attention that keeps the reader acutely present to the changing light, the passing crows, and the meteors streaking through the August night sky. To enter this book is to go uncommonly outside. -- Cole Swensen$18.00 -

Black Lines on Terracotta by Terry Van Vliet
PoetryIn a voice daring and decorous, Terry Van Vliet celebrates Apollonian beauty and erotic desire. He uses poets and painters who have long fascinated him as guides for exploring these states. Other poems are more autobiographical. Family, friends, and the vivid characters that abound in Los Angeles, London, or Paris become his subjects. —Katharine A. Daly$16.00
