LETTERBOX is the same ol' semi-annual innovatively formatted paper publication that got left somewhere in the dead letter office sometime back in the early 1990s, but now LETTERBOX welcomes the newest, most cutting-edge work one can send via email and still get away with it.

After a fourteen year hiatus, the editors of LETTERBOX magazine, for Issue #4, invite you to send in new work on the topic of Juncture. Please send your work via e-mail to submissions@letterboxmag.com, in plain text format or attached as a Word or RTF formatted file. For visually or typographically complex work, please also send a version in PDF format. The submission deadline for Issue #4 is October 15, 2008.

George Bush is buzzing on the radio, assuring us everything's going to be all right (he's been right all along). Tony Hoagland is unknown. After a long wait, Julie Doxsee's Undersleep is now available. Imperative concluding short sentence.

BONUS: Swamp Rats.

That cover.

HERE'S THE DEAL

Omnidawn is publishing two new titles mid to late September: Selected Poems of Friedrich Hölderlin, translated by Maxine Chernoff and Paul Hoover; and Saga/Circus by Lyn Hejinian.

Hölderlin will be $24.95 (it's 496 pp.) and Saga/Circus $15.95.

However, until August 1, they are available at the special introductory prices of $14.95 for Friedrich and $9.95 for Lyn—with free shipping. Or get both, also free shipping, for just $19.95.

I don't have a calculator, but that's a huge savings.

Click the jackets or linked titles (red) for details.

Mucking around the fashionable neighborhood where we don't live but sort of close to us, I found a cloth copy of Paul Carroll's The Young American Poets at a thrift store for $3. (Somewhere I have a paper copy in tatters.) It's loaded with groovy photographs, one per poet, and as Joseph Harrington points out, its 1968 mashup seems unlikely today, sadly. It turned on K.S.M., and look where that got him. As/if/whether I have time, I'll scan some of the photographs. Even Time Magazine reviewed it. Crazy.

blesséd repetition

Some flavorful essentially contested concepts (e.g., "best works") and near distinctions without difference (there is no such thing as poetry, only kinds of poetry sounds good, but what does it mean exactly?) aside, another cracking must-read from Silliman.
