That secret project I mentioned.

A Mayse-Bikhl.



A chapbook of twenty poems on Jewish themes, with introduction by Jeannelle M. Ferreira ([livejournal.com profile] strange_selkie) and edited by [livejournal.com profile] rose_lemberg. Design and binding by Erzebet YellowBoy Carr of Papaveria Press. Cover photograph by my grandfather, Alfred Glixman. This is something of a placeholder post, since the title will not be officially available until next week, but I wanted to let everyone know about it as soon as possible. It's a beautiful little book of tales; everyone involved has been amazing. Its existence makes me very, very happy.

Also apparently Chanteys for the Fisherangels (2009) is on sale. That's poems by me, J.C. Runolfson ([livejournal.com profile] seajules), Erik Amundsen ([livejournal.com profile] cucumberseed), Francesca Forrest ([livejournal.com profile] asakiyume), and an introduction by Greer Gilman ([livejournal.com profile] nineweaving), so I'd submit it's worth your time.

But this is essentially my first collection of poems since Postcards from the Province of Hyphens in 2005 and I am glad of it.

How absolutely beautiful! Congratulations!

You will of course bring flyers to the Norwich reading?

I can't find the Order button--help!

What language is it in?

it won't hurt you to know Yiddish or Hebrew.

It rarely does.
