& still

I'm thrilled to announce the publication of & still, a collaborative series of haikuish poems by Jennifer Books, jwcurry, & Dorothy Howard.

In a letter, jwcurry explained that these poems were written in August of 1998. After a rejection or two the manuscript was tucked away into his file of "collabrasions". During an organizational blitz of his office the manuscript resurfaced. With a few minor alterations and edits it was sent off to Puddles of Sky where it now has a home in print. 

These are highly succinct and cerebrally-stimulating poems that verge into visual.

curry's bibliographical notes are much more informative than anything I'd write up. They are listed below, and can also be found on his  flickr site, which I will also link to, and recommend that you check out. It's an incredible resource for anyone interested in Canadian Small Press  and its history.

& still is being sold for $7.00 + shipping. Check out our CHAPBOOKS page for more info.
