Lately at the Flea we have been carefully hanging books so that you can see them. Last week we featured books by the press Mindmade Books, edited by Guy Bennet. Mindmade books makes beautiful chapbooks and it was so lovely to see them all displayed together. We especially enjoyed hanging up Franklin Bruno's MF/MA and Chelsey Minnis's Foxina.
Next week we will display chapbooks from the Belladonna* Collaborative. Among many titles, we will have Bhanu Kapil's (a poem essay, or precursor: NOTES: for a novel: Ban en Banlieues) hanging against the summer sky. We will also have Latasha N. Nevada Diggs's Manuel is destroying my bathroom..., which is a selection from her forthcoming book, My Life as a Boy, soon to be published by Belladonna. Come out and peruse these wonderful chapbooks!
Ah..."Brooklyn Poetry Shop."
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't by chance be one of those unfortunate people who confuses Brooklyn (a borough of NYC populated by 2.5 million people) with "Brooklyn" or "Bklyn" (a patchwork of streets and neighborhoods populated by people attempting to live the "artisanal" life) would you?
