I am proud to announce From Everywhere a Little: A Migration Anthology, which came about as a collaborative effort by my friend Lisa Vihos and I. The 100 page book features poets from Wisconsin, the U.S., and beyond.
About this book, Wisconsin’s newest Poet Laureate, Margaret Rozga said, “At home or driven from home. Doors opening or shut fast. Migrants, immigrants, refugees. People moving and being moved. The poems in From Everywhere A Little: A Migration Anthology touch on all that. They will touch and move you, too. The journey may be dangerous—“Hide money in your shoe or in your underpants”—and the goal uncertain—“You can’t tell if the taste is bitter or if you’re tasting something sweet.” These poems urge us to pay heed to all this movement and as we do, “Brother, sister traveler, become an oracle.”
You can order copies from Water’s Edge Press. The publisher plans to ship pre-orders by March 15.
