Domestic Fugues

richard newman

book cover

"Richard Newman's Domestic Fugues is a musical confrontation with the difficult and painful recurrences of middle age-- love lost and love renewed, the depredations of time and change, the fear of aging as diminishing possibility. But . . . this is also a book about enduring need and the transformative power of song.—Alan Shapiro

Jump Start: A Northwest Renaissance Anthology

compiled by northwest renaissance poets

What I like most about this little anthology is the generosity of spirit behind it. In a time when too many poets approach 'the poetry biz' as a competitive arena, it's refreshing to see a project founded on the presumption that we can learn from one another. The range of poets is remarkable. . . . It's a collection worth celebrating.—Samuel Green, first Poet Laureate of the State of Washington

Lightning and Ashes

john guzlowski

Lighning  and Ashes book cover

The poet’s father tells his son that in one of the slave-labor camps he had watched ‘a woman in the moments before she died / take a stick and try to write her name / in the mud where she lay.’ This book magnificently redeems that lost gesture. It brings us face to face with what we cannot allow ourselves to forget. —Jared Carter
