Triple Crown Sonnets
Jeffrey Cyphers Wright
THIS IS A GREAT BOOK! Jeff Wright has become the first human being to win the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont. Take that, Equines! He did it the poet’s way—he crowned himself with sonnets, and gifted them to the world. Reciprocate his generosity by reading with your whole body. And they’re off!
Bob Holman
Both Sides Of The Niger
Andrew Kaufman
For many years I have admired the restless and generously spirited poems of Andrew Kaufman. He really does go to both sides of the Niger--both literally and metaphorically. This is not only a splendid book but it's also splendid journey!
Thomas Lux
Ashes Rain Down
William Luvaas
Jaw-droppingly brilliant and downright transcendent.
Caroline Leavitt
The Ivory Hour
Laynie Browne
Laynie Browne channels the energy of Mirabai in a book that is both charred and luminous. Her writing is a gift of abrasion, making the body of the reader a portal too.

Black Mountain Days
Michael Rumaker
Michael Rumaker’s finely detailed, evocative memoir puts personal flesh on Black Mountain College’s historical bones.

Adrian Sangeorzan
Adrian Sangeorzan understands intuitively with his heart and talent—and that is what he tells his reader in every story. This is not a belle lettre but a real voice talking about real things.
Andrey Gritsman
Approximating Diapason
j/j hastain & t thilleman
Struggling to find a mythos to convey our early twenty-first-century malaise, hastain and thilleman approximate a “diapason,” a “fixed standard of pitch,” a “compass of a voice.”

Karen Lillis
What I love most about Karen Lillis’ writing is it makes me want to be a writer. We need more writers excited about the world than people who neuter it.

Katherine Hastings is a poet whose words embody light; she is the ambassador of luminescence to American poetry today.

Dean Kostos
To his own medium, poetry, Dean Kostos applies his art teacher’s advice: “... draw in the mystery, press down harder - / let darkness draw all the elements together.”

Halvard Johnson
Probably everyone who reads poetry year after year knows of a favorite poet whose reputation should be larger than it is, and my candidate for that position is Halvard Johnson.
Charles Baxter
The Number of Missing
Adam Berlin
Berlin’s book is shattering, real, first-person history, made intimate by a narrator forced to stare at himself against the hole of Ground Zero.
