@bhousepress I forgot to add, if you want to order the book from your local indie via Bookshop, here’s the link— but places from @LiteratiBkstore to @mcnallyjackson and @newmaterialkcmo and more across the US and UK regularly keep it in stock.

Because @etinarcadia3go shouted me out, here’s a link to buy two of my chaps, retailed by New Material Books (@newmaterialkcmo). And keep scrolling through their site to buy books you won’t find anywhere else.

I used to go to a great many bookstores. Nowhere near as many in recent years—though I've seen things by a young bookstore I like very much. Its name is New Material Books

ESSAYS presents an absolute powerhouse line-up of poets.

We got to attend the original symposium that inspired this collection, hosted by Lasky in 2018, and were inspired by the unique space the “poet’s essay” opened up.

@newmaterialkcmo no (1) human being might be able to figure it out either.. might be better to order like (10) copies of each book & then distribute the books to trusted associates & family.. crowdsourcing-type thing
