We are proud to continue our project of publishing Deluxe Audio Editions of the poems of Gary Snyder, read by him. When first published in 2004, it was the poet's first new collection of poems in 20 years. Perhaps his most personal, autobiographical collection, it begins with the young poet ascending Mt. St. Helens in 1945, a climb accidentally timed with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was 15 years old.

Anne Waldman takes the opportunity with this 20th-anniversary expanded edition to add 20 poems to this collection that brings into focus her lifelong engagement with “chant” as central to contemporary performative poetry.

Juan Felipe Herrera, the first Latino Poet Laureate of the United States and son of Mexican immigrants, grew up in the migrant fields of California. Exuberant and socially engaged, reflective and healing, this collection of new work from the nation's first Latino Poet Laureate is brimming with the wide-open vision and hard-won wisdom of a poet whose life and creative arc have spanned chasms of culture in an endless crossing, dreaming and back again.

In The Devil’s Blacklist, Braeden Michaels gravitates to the darkest edges of the human mind and soul. The collection of almost 200 poems revolves around lust, anger, self-destruction, self-reflection, love, and the love that generates rubble. Braeden Michaels introduces a completely new form of poetry known as Deconstructive Literature, in which the author takes a thought, idea, scene, or emotion and deconstructs it only to rebuild it again, piece by piece, line upon line.
