Book Description
Poetry should make you feel, and that is exactly what the powerful and plain-spoken poems in Mathias Nelson's DIP MY PACIFIER IN WHISKEY do. They make you feel deeply, sometimes like you have been kicked in the crotch, but feel nonetheless. This is the first poetry book in a long time that you can embrace one moment and throw across the room the next-the one thing, however, I guarantee you won't do is put it down.

Book Description
In his third collection, The Latitude of a Mercy, Stefan Lovasik offers a testament of unflinching immediacy, conflicted sensitivity, and lyric grace - poem after poem, wise without presumption, pared down to a breed of silent speech, the stubborn legacy of what must be said and all that never can. Lovasik brings into striking focus the landscape of war, the lasting physical, moral and psychological consequences of it, and the resilience of the human spirit. The Latitude of a Mercy is a timeless, deeply moving and luminous book.

Book Description
Originally written in 2000 as his Masters thesis, Raymond P. Hammonds Poetic Amusement has been passed around underground as a digital file for ten years among those associated with The New York Quarterly. As provocative today as it was when it was written, what began as Hammonds observations of the influence of po biz and writing programs on contemporary American poetry became a timeless treatise on poetry itself. Using his experience with NYQ and devouring many literary critics across the ages from the ancient Greeks to contemporary critics, Hammond examines at once both our current literary environment and the essence of poetry. In seeking to answer the questions What is poetry? and Where does poetry come from? for himself, he encourages readers to ask those questions for and of themselves as well. Relevant and accessible to readers and writers of poetry and to those who think they dont know or want to know what poetry is, Poetic Amusement will anger, elevate and inspire all those who read it.

Book Description
The road a poet travels is often littered with unrealized fragments, half-realized drafts, and unfinished poems that found their ways into a magazine but never earned their way into a book. If a poet is lucky, a few of such left-behinds might be "rescued," released into their true form thanks to abilities that have ripened over many years of practice. In Under Sleep's New Moon, Joseph Hutchison (Colorado Poet Laureate, 2014-2019) offers a range of such poems, all rescued from his first fifteen years of writing. The poems in this new/old collection are by turns personal and public, surreal and naturalistic, musical and plain-spoken. But all explore the liminal regions we live in every day, too often unconscious of what we're finding there. What this poet found there he has lifted into new configurations, where at last the poems can speak for themselves.
