Ralph Waldo Emerson found it "the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has yet produced." Published at the author's expense on July 4, 1855, Leaves of Grass inaugurated a new voice and style into American letters and gave expression to an optimistic, bombastic vision that took the nation as its subject. Unlike many...

In my truck again, filled with notebooks and sin. I write you out of my life, as easy as I wrote you in. In my truck again, filled with dogs memories and gin. I write just to survive, as easy as death's black grin.
So begins a stanza from the highly anticipated collection of new poems, Unamazing Grace.
Raw, deep and profound-these lyrical poems bleed unflinching truths from the typewriter of critically acclaimed poet Jack Norton.

A reprint of trans poet, activist, and teacher TC Tolbert's beloved debut collection of poetry.
In Gephyromania (literally, an addiction to or an obsession with bridges), Tolbert's choice isn't between female and male, lover and self, or loss and relief, but rather to live in the places where those binaries meet.

Ndaba's poetic voice invokes people, and places, and a lifestyle specific to Southern Africa.
Social and activist stanzas are intertwined with melancholy, pathos, or derision. The critical voice of the poet doesn't forgive and doesn't forget. His incorruptible vision demands changes and whips harmful attitudes and concepts.
Melancholy is woven in his words, and sadness shadows disapproval.
Ndaba's verses always deserve a second or a third reading....
