Copper Canyon Press was founded in 1972 with a passion for poetry. One place where that passion found expression was in letterpress broadsides--beautifully designed with hand-set type and ornaments, and printed in small runs on a Chandler & Price platen press. These gorgeous pieces of literary ephemera came into the world for any number of reasons: to celebrate a book's release or mark a publishing milestone, to give as gifts to readers and donors, to distribute at readings and festivals.In the mid-2000s, Copper Canyon began working with other letterpress printers, including Stern & Faye, lone goose press, Expedition Press, and The North Press. Most recently, Copper Canyon collaborated with the School for Visual Concepts in Seattle and The North Press to produce a portfolio of broadsides featuring poetry on the theme of water.This anthology represents the broadsides and prints which are currently available from our inventory. Many are signed by the poet. They all represent the remaining copies of limited editions. And once they're gone, they're gone... though, in all but a few cases, the poem on the broadside can always be found within the Copper Canyon book it calls home.

Marvin is known for bristling, provocative poems on what it means to be a woman and navigating turbulent relationships with both beloved ones and oneself. Marvin, dubbed a "postmodern Plath," can find herself simultaneously violent and tender, sharp and vulnerable, using irony and dark humor just as skillfully as Plath to make fierce observations on relationships and loss. Marvin co-founded VIDA, an organization committed to highlighting gender disparities in the larger landscape of literary publications. The organization is known for the "VIDA Count," an annual gender breakdown of major literary publications and book reviews. Marvin had her first child through IVF in her late 30s. Some poems address the contrasts between how she was parented versus what she wants for her daughter. Marvin explores a plethora of complicated relationships and their statuses-old or reconnected boyfriends, toxic friendships, austere parents, being a single mother. Recipient of a Whiting Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Kate Tufts Discovery Award. Some poems in Event Horizon refer to or are in conversation with other writers, including "dead poets" like Marianne Moore and Richard Howard, and also more contemporary ones like Sharon Olds and Wallace Stevens. Marvin is an only child, and her father was a CIA intelligence analyst. There are poems about their strained relationship in the book.

Nimipuutímpt, the language of the Nez Perce, is a critically endangered language, with fewer than 50 fluent speakers left in the world. Swallowed Light is written in both English and Nimipuutímpt. When asked to come up with a reason why he writes, Wasson said ¿I write because all my storytellers are dead.¿ This poetry is opulent and dreamlike, rich and visceral. The world Wasson creates is a world one cannot help but be drawn into. With this first full-length collection, Wasson is an exciting emerging voice in contemporary poetry. Wasson wrote Swallowed Light from the Japanese village in which he currently lives. He has a complex relationship with the idea of home, telling LitHub ¿I long to earn my way towards some sense of home.¿ Wasson grew up on the Nez Perce reservation, raised mostly by his grandfather. He names Natalie Diaz, Ocean Vuong, Eduardo C. Corral, and Sherwin Bitsui as major influences on his poetry.
