The Donner Party
By George Keithley
George Braziller, Inc.
“The Donner Party is one of the three or four finest book-length
American poems ever written.”—Poetry. “Out of the western
migration of the 1840s...Keithley has made a lean, taut narra-
tive poem that moves with the speed and terseness of a killer
shark.”—The New York Times. “Keithley’s account of the Donner
tragedy is a major event in American letters.”—X.J. Kennedy.

perimeter homespun
By Marcia Arrieta
BlazeVOX Books“perimeter homespun is part meditation, part equation. Both spare
and delightfully baroque at the same time, the collection deftly
explores the tensions between art and nature, the created world
and the occurring one.”—Kristy Bowen. “Arrieta constructs
exquisite thresholds here out of the pre-verbal and dreamt.”
—Anne Gorrick.
