Poems by Juli Nunlist
"Slender is a word sometimes used to compliment a woman's figure; but we never use the word to compliment a woman's poems. Yet it is the right word for Juli Nunlist's elegant and moving poems: for they are slender the way a Renaissance dagger is, or the high, perfect notes of a countertenor's voice..." —Don Sheehan.

Poems by Jean Tupper
"Here are poems that please and surprise. Feet do an underwater dance, searching for quahogs; a woman clothes herself in tsunami blue; a dreamer becomes Jacob's ladder and feels the slippered feet of angels ascending and descending. In these vividly detailed meditations, Jean Tupper shows us our world transformed and gleaming in rainlight."

by Lawrence Kinsman
This fabulous new detective-thriller by Lawrence Kinsman transcends the genre. As Edmund White says: "[Kinsman develops] characters of genuine complexity and depth. In fact, Kinsman's rich characterizations and keen observation of significant physical detail nearly bring the detective novel into the realm of literary fiction."
And Robert Begiebing says, "Birds of Prey is a brilliantly and tightly plotted contemporary American crime novel, a superb page turner. Detective Sylvie Kaplan is, by the way, more than likely to blow Kay Scarpetta clean out of the water."
