Highlighting recently released and forthcoming works by marginalized creators
NDA by Lily Lady
NDA by poet and filmmaker Lily Lady is an intimate and opaque poetry collection about [REDACTED] and [REDACTED].
Spiral upward, downward, and side to side. From the safe words of New York to the alleys of Los Angeles….and all the flights in between.
Instructions for The Lovers by Dawn Lundy Martin
A taught, tender collection of poems woven with sadness and loss dealing with aging, attachments, and the precarity of life.
After her prize-winning debut, Karen Rigby returns with a beguiling ars poetica and tribute to the dazzling. From Dior to Olympic figure skating, Bruegel to British crime drama, Rigby’s poems revere memorable art, where “performance masks the hours.” Here, thread galvanizes air. A poem is a diamond heist. And menace and elegance are twin gloves directing each cinematic moment. A book of feminine ardor, teenaged MDD and survival, Fabulosa embroiders beauty out of ache.
