<p>Poetry. " Robert Hill Long's poems have the feel of land and history seen in moments of personal definition, seen through the lens of a family. His voice speaks in long and fluent lines with both freedom and formal assurance, of the experience of war, and of the war and peace of human affection. It is a voice that praises the voluptuous body of earth, and incorporates the sad flotsam of a family, of mortality. At times wickedly funny, at others haunted by the legend and landscape of America, his poems are always politically informed and alert, and our poetry is the richer"-Robert Morgan.</p>

Long, Robert Hill

Poetry. "Wally Swist's poems are lean and clean to the bone. Meditations on nature, love, sanity and evil are limned with grace and clarity. Finally, though, this book is a celebration, the way one man coming face to face with a fox is a kind of celebration"-James Tate. Wally Swist was born in New Haven, Connecticut in 1953. His essays, poems, and reviews have appeared in The American Book Review, The Anthology of Magazine Verse and Yearbook of American Poetry, Poetry East, The Small Press Review, and Yankee. He has published several chapbooks of his work and is the recipient of a grant from the Connecticut Commission on the Arts. "To read a Wally Swist poem is to see a piece of the world in a special way. A whole book of such poems is a blessing"-Gary Metras.

Poetry. "The power of Arthurian legend, and of the hold romantic love has over human beings, is shown again here in this moving sequence which speaks almost entirely in the voices of the women in the stories. The harshness of landscape and the culture these people were subject to—the women, the men, and the children—seems only framed differently, but very close to our own. Margaret Lloyd has gathered all this to her with haunting empathy for human life and the life of the natural world"—Jean Valentine.

Poetry. Bill O'Connell's poems are illuminations born under a rising moon or in the growing brightness of morning. These poems are fierce, quiet, and always tender celebrations in the living of our lives. O'Connell believes in the purity of joy in these cynical times, and is unafraid to seek the ineffable in our collective sorrow. He is a writer whose heart is haunted by the world. Because of this, he must sing.
