Interested in the paragraph in poetry? My close reading of Kelly Schirmann's 'The New World' (published by Black Ocean in The New World) considers her whole book as variations on that form.

The grotesque yet inquisitive poetry of Joe Hall returns to the limelight in 'Fugue and Strike” (Black Ocean), his fourth full-length collection. New review by Greg Bem in our Online Edition: raintaxi.com/fugue-and-stri… joehalljoehall.bsky.social Greg Bem, a college librarian

“Equal parts postmodern mysticism and documentarian witnessing, this book urges the reader to ‘write into abandonment,’ and ‘See a world of new lives form,’ born of refined poetic sensibility.' Poetry Foundation on RISK by Rusty Morrison: buff.ly/4aBRG14

'This poetry may serve for many as a kaleidoscopic keystone into the relentlessness of work, the void of commodification, the hope of solidarity, and the necessity of revolt.' Rain Taxi on Joe Hall's FUGUE & STRIKE: buff.ly/49jmJOl

Feel pretty lucky to be among such amazing poets. The Sisters will be out with Black Ocean this fall.

Happy pub date to Rusty Morrison’s newest collection of poetry: RISK! Get it now on our website or from your favorite bookseller: buff.ly/32NSwrd 🔥
