Four New from MATERIALS

Four new publications from Materials--

Gabrielle Daniels, Something Else Again: Poetry and Prose, 1975-2019 

“Daniels’ talents spin in every conceivable direction. Her writing continues to investigate and illumine corners of the world often neglected by the white capitalistic structures of patriarchy that shapes our lives from birth to death. Daniels’ work reveals a history, a legacy, a plan of action for the future. These are stories and poems with the punch of a novel in miniature.”      (Dodie Bellamy and Kevin Killian)

A5, perfect bound, 233pp 

Tongo Eisen-Martin, Waiting Behind Tornados for Food 

“I am trying to figure out the ruling class. How they raise their replacements...”
A5, perfect bound, 80pp

John DeWitt, 20 20 Pretzels  

“Can I have a water?
And and or or
A bowl of oceanic feelings bungled and split?”    
A5, saddle stitch, 52pp

David Grundy, Local Apocalypse 

“There’s a bird in the hand
A bird in the eye
Across the table
Across the afternoon
Clouds    Clouds     Clouds
Across the sky
May silence help you you”
A5, saddle stitch, 52pp
