Now in its fourth edition and vastly expanded, Anniversarius: The Book of Autumn is Brett Rutherford's 40-poem epic cycle of autumn poems. Although there is plenty of Shelley, Poe, and Bradbury here in the celebration of "autumn's being," this cycle encompasses works that are mythic, metaphysical, political, satirical and, of course, supernatural.
Autumn becomes the landscape for Jan Palach's suicide in Soviet-invaded Czechoslovakia in 1969; for translations of Pushkin and Hugo; and for rhapsodic and moody invocations of fall in Western Pennsylvania (the poet's birthplace) and haunted...

Unknown to one another until the mid-1980s, poets Brett Rutherford and Pieter Vanderbeck had each been writing intense narrative and satirical poems about Russia and Eastern Europe for many years. The first edition of this book came out in 1992, with both the horrors of totalitarian regimes, and the jubilation of liberation, expressed in its pages. Tracing terror and resistance in Russia, Romania, East Germany through the lens of the persecuted artist -- such as a nameless writer in Rumania pursued and beaten by thugs, or Shostakovich's years of midnight watches for the men in black he...

Emilie Glen (1906-1995) was best known as a poet, but she started her writing career in fiction, first published in H.L. Mencken's The American Mercury, Prairie Schooner, and other magazines. In these nineteen short stories, Glen presents a portrait of mid-20th century America, using penetrating character portraits to show a world already nearly-gone, its customs and manners as odd to some of us as those of an Amazonian people. A keen observer of manners and of the human drama, Emilie Glen centers sometimes on family drama: a high-stakes croquet game among heirs, the prize a Bermuda resort...

This fourth and final volume collects all the unpublished manuscripts left by New York poet Emilie Glen. These 180 poems, lyric and narrative, far from being the -bottom drawer- of the poet's work, contain the same urban savor as her longer works. Some of these poems were read by tyhe poet repeatedly at the poetry salon she ran in Greenwich Village, and prior to that, at the salon she ran at her high-rise apartment on the Lower East Side in the 1960s and 1970s. As always, her most engaging poems are miniature short stories, all set against a noir Manhattan that includes both shocking murders...
