New Books October 2009
Fallibility, poems
Elizabeth Oness (Houston, MN)
"I am grateful for this beautiful book." Jeffrey Harrison
Friend Among Stones, poemsMaya Pindyck (Brooklyn, NY)
"The best advice re writing a poem is Emily Dickinson's: Tell the truth but tell it slant. Most poets try to do that, most of us fail. Maya Pindyck's poems very often find exactly the right slant, the right channel, the right wire, the right hypodermic--straight to the reader's heart!" Thomas Lux
When Love Was Clean Underwear, novel
Susan Barr-Toman (Philadelphia, PA)
“This novel captures the pulse of life—even when I put the book down and go about my day, I think about these characters. Barr-Toman writes with precision and wonderful humor about the human experience, and the need for forgiveness.” Elizabeth Cox

American Fiction Series:
Whiskey Heart (novel) by Rachel L. Coyne (Minnesota)
"Coyne understands the human heart - she knows all the dark corners, twisted by the heat and hurt of love, and she knows the odd paths back from ruin. I couldn't put it down." Jonis Agee
Minneapolis Star Tribune review
Interference and Other Stories by Richard Hoffman (Massachusetts)
"The stories in Interference are moving, wise, and bracingly unsentimental. Richard Hoffman writes about male sadness and vulnerability with unusual insight and tough-minded compassion." Tom Perrotta
