New in September: Holding Pattern and All of It Singing


Cover image of Holding PatternHolding Pattern
by Jeffery Renard Allen

“Subtly otherworldly, each tale is electric with the rising tension that proceeds stormy weather; each tale is a veritable boxing match, as characters trapped in impossible situations feint, jab, and retreat.”
Booklist (starred review)

product image By Steve Stern
"There are many reasons to savor Stern's stories—they remind us of worlds and folkloric traditions long faded from memory, as well as of the imagination's wilder side—but perhaps the most telling of all is the sheer pleasure they provide." —Washington Post Book World
product image By Clint McCown

“Clint McCown’s The Weatherman is a funny and smart novel about making it through the seriously changeable weather of life on planet Earth. When the meteorologist of the title—a memorable character named Taylor Wakefield—points to that seemingly empty blue screen behind him, it’s not just clouds and sunshine that show up, it’s us.” —Robert Olen Butler

product image By David Rivard

The unillusioned and effervescent new collection by David Rivard, whose poetry “leaves me with a desire to be permanently friends with this mysterious kind of grace.” —Tomaz Salamun

product image By Carl Phillips
"Out so much farther than our present pieties, attentive to no social or sentimental voice, only passion's (so often ruinous, defiant of upshot), it is not in every case, every poem, that Carl Phillips triumphs over my timidity. As with Sappho and Pasolini, though, traces of the winged god are everywhere unmistakable, even when this new poet has kicked them over: it is a sacred entail his harsh graces make. I for one am an awed (if lacerated) heir." —Richard Howard
product image By Elizabeth Alexander
"In narratives sweetened by the lyric pulse and pierced through by felicitous turns of irony, Alexander chronicles the world of 'black and tan'. Race is present in her poems in the way that sex, class, age, even weather are present in all of our lives." —Rita Dove, "Poets Choice," The Washington Post
