I will watch / as you blink in and out of recognition. / I will watch your leaves yellow and learn / a new name for you. — Wheeler Light in @tupelopress.bsky.social www.tupeloquarterly.com/poetry/wheel...

Shenandoah and intern Ellis Nicholson did a terrific job with this interview about Mycocosmic. Again, I get a little ecstatic about fungal connections, but that has become a professional liability! www.shenandoahliterary.org/thepeak/an-i... @tupelopress.bsky.social

Dan Beachy-Quick @tupelopress.bsky.social

“These poems manage to tilt the blinds to reveal the undressed mind, with interior reflections melding with those outside.” Wonderful review of Allyson Paty’s Jalousie in Calyx Press www.calyxpress.org/reviews/jalo...

THE MANY DEATHS OF INOCENCIO RODRIGUEZ by Iliana Rocha is on our #HispanicHeritageMonth reading list! This @tupelopress.bsky.social collection “chronicles an obsession with the 1971 unsolved murder of Rocha’s grandfather while interrogating the true crime genre.” www.tupelopress.org/product/the-...

We deeply mourn the loss of Baron Wormser, multi-genre literary master, Guggenheim Fellow and former Poet Laureate of Maine, author of 15 books, including one he graced us with: “Legends of the Slow Explosion-Eleven Modern Lives,” brilliant portraits of Rosa Parks… 1/2

What a lovely message from @bookshop.org. Glad to see them growing and growing. We CAN claim back what has been taken from us by these monstrous corporations, and it starts with things like this. Grab some books these next couple days!
