The seventy-one poems collected here might be regarded, as Charles Bernstein has written, as “sound” poems, being tethered not only to the literature of the Black Arts Movement but also to jazz culture and urban life in New York. Drawing as much from the visual arts and concrete poetry as from sound-based experimentation and music, Pritchard utilized the simple tools of spacing and typography to create syncopations, vibrations, and musical rhythms. What emerges is nothing less than a self-contained system of mimetic codes that challenge modernist modes of perception and representation.

Lipeles’ elegant and urgent prose brilliantly collapses the space between literary and romantic longing, luxuriating in the knowledge that there is no desire without projection. This imagistic slideshow of a book saturates us with the devouring gaze of youthful passion and maturity’s cool stare—a uniquely compelling double consciousness, and one rarely encountered. \u003cem\u003eLetters to M.\u003c\/em\u003e is a moving testament to both the eros of influence and the intellect of desire. A poignant reminder that when traversing the forest of others in search of love, we continually and unexpectedly encounter the self.' - Nicholas Muellner \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIn Lipeles's \u003cem\u003eLetters to M.\u003c\/em\u003e, the narrator writes letters addressed to an ex-partner, M. The letters begin as a way to process the disintegration of the relationship and grow into a series of lyric essays, poems, and photographs, which bring his love for M. into conversation with writers' and photographers’ work he admires. The narrator slips between his feelings for M. and his love for writers and photographers such as David Wojnarowicz, Renee Gladman, Frank O'Hara and Carrie Mae Weems in order to foreground intimacy and to begin to close the gap between reader and writer, lover and critic.  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eJason Lipeles is a Los-Angeles-based writer and artist.

I was bowled over by the generosity of these poems, felt a physical response towards McCann’s poetics of longing, acceptance, and ultimately of safety in Keeper’s act of both individual humanity and togetherness. These poems are slyly laced with humour and sexuality, beckoning you to wade into them, smiling.

A muddy field gasps with eroticism. A father is helpless foreseeing pain he cannot prevent. Sleep is close to death, but also to lovers and neighbours. The wordcraft of these strong, amused, and tender poems will hold you the way an otter holds its favourite pebble to its heart, lying on its furred and musky back, and playing as if the stream of the present were forever, playing hard while loss whisks just around the corner.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eVahni Anthony Capildeo\u003cem\u003e, author of Like a Tree, Walking\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eWe’re so excited to release Mícheál McCann’s new pamphlet.

At that time, Sova developed an idiosyncratic gambling method in the casinos of northern Michigan. These bets financed a flight to Paris where, at 20, he first discovered the power of literature. Since then, Sova has produced poetry and prose that have been featured in Ghost City Review, Common Dreams, and Expat Press. He also authored Tiger Island (Harvard Square Press, 2017), an alternate history novel about water privatization, soccer, anarchosyndicalism, and WikiLeaks. In addition to writing poetry and fiction, Sova serves as a writer and editor at The European Institute for Animal Law \u0026amp; Policy, a Brussels-based think tank that seeks to advance the interests of animals in European law and policy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e","brand":"First To Knock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47451378876751,"sku":"PK0028","price":14.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/3068\/6031\/files\/PK0028_Wildcat_Dreams.jpg?v=1695897708"},{"product_id":"bobby-bluejacket-the-tribe-the-joint-the-tulsa-underworld","title":"Michael P.
