cracked slab books has published the city visible: chicago poetry for the new century. it is an anthology of the best innovative poetry currently being written in chicago and the surrounding areas.

if you have been living in the u.s., you probably have heard a lot about chicago and poetry in the last few years. many new reading venues have emerged for innovative writing. a few strong presses have been founded, and many innovative poets have moved to the city. this anthology provides a chance for those not in chicago to get a taste of what is going on here.




i'm very excited to have been a part of this process, and i urge you to pick up a copy here or at amazon.com (amazon has it on sale right now).
