A dazzling array of starshot across the sky from the brilliant Cris Mazza, who reminds us again and again that we must not only hold the line when it comes to our individual and community worth, but endlessly imagine a future. Cris Mazza makes feminism act like a verb, an ever-adapting organism, a space of change.

A mad, clanking, elegant, touching romp through a lifetime of associations, reflections, deliberations, and excavations. Serge Gavronsky delivers up a kaleidoscopic camera obscura objectivist inwreathing ply-over-ply minor epic here.

Kelly's wry, sardonic humor, his sharp insights into America, and his keen, unflinching honesty force us to face our common humanity and our failings. Arguably... Dave Kelly is America's Greatest Living Poet.

King Ezra takes the reader from Ezra Pound's incarceration by the U. S. military after World War II, up to his final days in Venice in the early 1970s. M. G. Stephens draws upon his literary reserves as a poet, fiction writer, and playwright to tell this tragic story of a flawed genius.

An ominous, uncanny, and darkly hilarious descent into a paranoid, disaffected, and entirely relatable consciousness. Both a great New York novel, and a great novel about the myriad modern tensions between self and society, reason and unreason, boredom and transcendence, and, ultimately, sanity and whatever sanity isn't.

Here it is: a treasure chest of poems, fresh as wonder, enduring as humanity In Necessary Speech: New and Selected Poems.

In Noch Ein at the Stein, Tim Shaner captures the essential elements of why the Stein is my favorite bar in America. The beer community, the stories, the very human social contact & interaction.

A marvelously offbeat, funny, irrepressible, endlessly inventive story of art and life. With philosophical mischief and earnest impiety, this island tale, like its Shakespearean antecedents, asks deep questions about where the rehearsal and performance of our existence trespasses into the thing itself.

Stephens has written about the Cooles before, and perhaps he will do so again, continuing to supply a necessary if nasty corrective to one of the myths of the moment. In a strange way his grimness nearly makes this book a political statement.

In a distant country, recently imprisoned filmmaker Vasant Rai is offered a chance at freedom. But the choice, he learns, offers itself at a very steep price. Ravi Mangla's The Observant is a sharp-eyed literary thriller.

Novelists have long understood the literary merits of Pym and often modeled their own books after its example. Jules Verne was inspired to write a sequel to Poe's novel, The Sphinx of the Ice Realm and Henry James found the title for The Golden Bowl by reading Pym. John Barth re-read Pym in the spirit of Italo Calvino's The Castle of Crossed Destinies, and Borges considered the novel to be Poe's greatest work. Melville had Pym in mind as one model for Ishmael's epistemology in Moby-Dick. Charles Romyn Dake published his sequel to Pym in the last year of the nineteenth century; in 2011, Mat Johnson based his satire on race in America, Pym: A Novel, on Poe's novel.

Grimes' The Economist continues probing the ways economies and public policies intersect with individual lives and personal conflicts. To bring pathos to an emerging "deplorable" takes this novel far beyond social commentary and well into art.
