In this hybrid chapbook, Emma McVeigh examines the purchase of Alaska, often referred to as Seward’s Folly, indigenous Alaskan language, and settler colonialism of the Pacific Northwest through a series of multiple poetic forms and photos. As is often typical of hybrid work, the book raises, but does not answer, important questions, including McVeigh’s own family history in Alaska and her own residence in Seattle. Both playful and reflective, historical and personal, Folly offers a valuable examination of American expansionism.

Now on sale!

Her Mouth a Palace of Lamps is a meditation on what it means to be a woman in two cultures, connected to loved ones as a daughter, a wife, a mother. Yamini Pathak’s first collection moves between countries and through time as the narrator reflects on her girlhood, the lessons of her parents and other elders, as well as on the shifting pressures on women today. Weaving rich description of the domestic and the artistic seamlessly throughout, this is a book of warm, rich imagery and quiet, compelling reflection.
