    "You're now here in Dean Crawford's world. Forget your troubles, settle back in your Tom Robbins La-Z-Boy for a delightful tramp through the little Kansas cowpoke town of "You're Now Here." I can't think of a better way to spend an afternoon than with Calvin Cheeseburgers, Katie McGhee, (the villain) Ike Drogue, and the other characters who inhabit the town, including two ghosts-on-call-when-needed. Stick around for the inadvertent invention of the cheeseburger. It's a Blast." -Jim Lally, author of Stick Tight Man

  • av Wendy Jett

    "Jett's unique storytelling seamlessly blends monologue, poetry, and even recipes to create a strong voice that speaks straight to the hearts of readers. Each entry in Girl stands alone, but together as a whole they tell the powerful story of Girl as she navigates themes of identity, self-worth, trauma, family, and survival. Not a single word is wasted in this haunting book, and what is left unsaid becomes equally as powerful as the words printed on the page. Jett has created a cast of characters and a world that remain vivid long after the last page is read. Readers will want to pick up Girl again and again to read in its entirety, or to open to a random page and savor the poetic writing of this finely-crafted story."-Marcia Thornton Jones, author/co-author of over 135 books for kids

  • av Cathy Perkins
    289,-

    Udder Uproar is Cathy Perkins's debut collection of humorous poems. Courageous, crude at times but always unapologetic, the poems in this book surprise and entertain the reader with their mixture of frankness and vulnerability.

  • av Richard Taylor
    266,-

    "True to his title there are many fathers (along with a few prominent women) celebrated here, foremost his own father Joe Howard "Buzz" Taylor, as well as ancestors like Reuben Taylor, first of his Kentucky line, surrogate fathers including his Uncle Louis and best friend David Orr, and his son, now a father himself, continuing the generational saga. But recalling that the child is father of the man, the chief reason to welcome this book is for the insights it affords into Taylor's early life story, including nostalgic accounts of his childhood in and around Louisville, Kentucky, vivid portraits of the people who shaped his development, and his reckoning with the fraught history of the Civil War and his legacy as a southerner. Taylor says this may be as close to an autobiography as he is apt to write, which is all the more reason to cherish these sketches from the life of a true Kentucky literary treasure."-Larry W. Moore, publisher, Broadstone Books

  • av Frank X Walker
    249,-

    "In his new book of poems, Love House, Frank X Walker invites his readers in and speaks to them with consummate grace and intimacy about the things that matter most: loving, parenting, aging, living, dying, as well as basketball, birds, gardens, and golf. Walker, who is well known for giving voice to historical characters and bringing their stories to life, uses his insight, imagination, and hard-earned wisdom to write about himself and his family, including secrets, fears, and the unsolved mysteries that underlie daily living. Love House is "made of air, poems, books, and art" and real loving people brought to the page by one of today's finest and most prolific poets." - Greg Pape, author of A Field of First Things

  • av Andrew Merton
    223,-

    "In Andrew Merton's view of poetry, brevity is the soul of wisdom. His poems are compact. He likes plenty of white space around some image or pithy utterance ... Merton is like some elderly neighbor, someone we pass on the street for years without a second look, someone who-when we finally exchange a few sentences-seems to be thinking and worrying about many of the same things we have, someone we would like to spend more time with from now on." -Charles Simic

  • av Mark Russell Brown
    223,-

    "Boney-Fingered Reach for God is a remarkable debut, a testament to Mark Brown's striking imagination, energetic vocabulary, and devotion to intense love relationships. This three-part work is fueled as well by the poet's appreciation for the bizarre in historical situations, culminating in poems that literally radiate around the life of Marie Curie. Brown's vulnerable investigations of love and his wacky narratives are made all the more vibrant by the poet's metaphorical skill. It is bittersweet that the gracefully sequenced Boney-Fingered Reach for God is also Mark Brown's posthumous signature, the life of a poet cut short." -Molly Peacock, author of A Friend Sails in on a Poem
