events. We thank him for launching us on this
wonderful adventure, and wish him all the best
in his new endeavors!
Broadstone Books has revised our
submission policy, so be sure to read it before

capacity, and no reflection on the excellent
literature being written around the world.

A Hagiography of Heaven
and Vicinity
Poetry by
Michael Joyce
“Hagiography of Heaven includes some of the best
writing I have read this year, and moreover it is wise,
offering up an extraordinarily attentive and
reassuring poetry celebrating the familiarity and
strangeness of the ordinary where the ordinary
includes the literary and the heavenly.”
—Keith Tuma

Fitzpatrick
Poetry by
Richard Carr
"In Richard Carr’s newest collection of poetry,
Fitzpatrick, Joyce’s Bloom—reincarnated as a
painter —is presented, for our amusement and,
perhaps, our edification, through the lens of his
bartender, his 'bastard' of a drinking buddy, his wife,
and, most clearly perhaps, his paintings themselves."
—George Looney
In masterful narrative verse, Richard Carr uses
multiple voices and perspectives to portray his title
character, the artist Fitzpatrick, glimpsed here only
through others and his work.

what is past and what is potential.

Afloat
Poems 2014—2017
Jonathan Greene
The latest collection from a master poet whose career
now spans six decades. Though each exquisitely well-
chosen word here bears the full weight of human
experience, Jonathan Greene's touch is so light and sure
that his poems float on the page, and in our minds upon
reading them.

prison recipes
A poetry chapbook by
Jeremy Paden
“These poems are urgent and unflinching as they
interrogate humanity in the face of horror.”
—Bianca Lynne Spriggs
Jeremy Paden takes us into the man-made darkness of
political oppression in Argentina and Chile, and through
poems describing the means by which bodies and souls
are sustained, he also celebrates the triumph of human
dignity in the face of brutality.

No More Poems
Poetry by
F. Keith Wahle
“F. Keith Wahle’s No More Poems is an heroic
Whitmanesque exercise in celebration, as he looks at the
ranges of things poems can be about, present, future, and
past...” — David Schloss
In this brilliantly satiric, breathlessly paced, often
hilarious enumeration of all the things about which poems
will no longer be written, the ultimate “list poem”
transforms into a litany of supplication for the sake of
poetry, of culture, and ultimately of life itself.

Reasons for the Long Tu’m
Poetry by
Sara Cahill Marron
“Sara Marron writes a startling poetry for our disjointed
times, one that moves beyond the clichéd and confining
limits of poetry, but also optimizing poetry’s virtues on
authentic voice, sound, and wisdom.”
—Stephen Paul Miller
Like the Duchamp painting that inspired it, this is a work
that shatters conventions and defies definition. That it
arrives from a first-time author is even more cause for
celebration, a hopeful sign of the enduring power and
potential of language in the service of humanity in dark
times and places.

The Bean Can: A Book
A Novella by
Steven R. Cope
“Cope has an affinity with Faulkner and Flannery O’
Connor, but his genius is all his own. Don’t miss this
book!”
—George Ella Lyon
When Agile Hess goes missing, his mother asks his
childhood friend Hills to search for him. The ensuing
quest takes us through memory and myth, comedy and
tragedy, all against a backdrop of the land and people of
Eastern Kentucky, portrayed in lovingly lyrical language.
