FABRIC: Preludes to the Last American Book
Richard Froude

“I love Richard Froude’s declarative, incandescently plain sentences, which at first seem like high-stakes non-sequiturs, then a study in perfect, surprising aphorism, then a deftly woven web of profundity. The formal distillation and intellectual range of this book are impressive enough; even more so is Froude’s gentle but insistent touching on questions of God, mortality, war, memory, family, intimacy, and history. Froude sets up poetic shop in the fraught space between ‘terror and fertility,’ and wrests from it this exceptionally beautiful, intelligent book.”
-Maggie Nelson

It Might Turn Out We Are Real
Susan Scarlata

“Susan Scarlata is on message, and she is not letting go. She is trying to tell us “no other planet meets our needs.” She turns her screen to let us see what she sees. Not, as they say, a pretty sight. She lays it out with great precision in her beautiful vitrine of words. It Might Turn Out We Are Real is a complete set of 21ST century eclogues delivered to your door with brainy clarity, with vinegary humor, with ergonomic economy and red-behind-the-ribs feeling. A positively extraordinary collection.”
—C.D. Wright
