Emops, piems, and pomes—oh my! From Niagara-based poet Franco Cortese comes of faulthers, a beautifully rich and impressive set of formal poetic experiments that spins language delightfully on its axis and sends it falling, failing, flailing into the abyss. The work features a wide variety of poetic forms and styles, including multilingual lipogrammatic palindromes, line-unit anagrams, amputranslations—everything including the kitschen sink. We’re not sure exactly what this is, but it hits us right in the schfeels.

This chapbook is printed on white paper with cardstock cover lovingly designed and (painstakingly!) typeset by Dani Spinosa. Each copy is bound with a translucent ribbon sealed with wax—cause we like breaking shit and we like to do it fancy.
