Fair Creatures of an Hour Lynn Levin Poetry ISBN 9780926147287 $12.95	“Writing with wit, elegance, and occasional bursts of high-velocity surrealism, Lynn Levin brings poetry to bear on the realities of a contemporary world grown increasingly unreal. The gem of this fine collection is “Little Red Telegram,” about the legendary race horse Smarty Jones, a longish poem that, like the other superb work here, makes a strong case for the unfashionable notion that smart poetry can also be wonderfully entertaining. Five stars for Fair Creatures of an Hour.” —B. H. Fairchild   Fair Creatures of an Hour was a 2010 Next Generation Indie Book Awards finalist in poetry. Lynn Levin's other books include A Few Questions About Paradise and Imaginarium. She is also the translator for The Forest: Poems by Besnik Mustafaj.

Traces in Blood, Bone, & Stone Contemporary Ojibwe Poetry Kimberly Blaeser, Editor Poetry ISBN 092614717X $19.95	It might be said that western awareness of American Indian poetry began with the Ojibwe. When Henry Rowe Schoolcraft . . . published translations of Chippewa songs and stories in 1839, it woke the world to the existence of sophisticated literary and philosophical awareness among the “savages” of North America. It could be seen as the start of scholarly respect for what is now called Native American Literature. . . With that background, the number, the strength, and the variety of the Objiwe voices in this superb anthology should be a surprise to no one and a delight to every reader of poetry. I cannot think of any collection of American Indian poems including those that represent many tribal nations that gives a better picture of what it means to be an Indian today, of the many ways in which Native writers continue to bring the past into the present, celebrate the future, not just survive, but thrive as a vital part of world literature. -Joe Bruchac, Abenaki writer and storyteller, author of Our Stories Remember
