The Kimnama

The KimnamaThe Kimnama (book)

Print: $12.00

Inspired by traveling through northern India, The Kimnama is a blend of history, narrative, stunning imagery, and personal encounters. It’s like the Indian combination of spices called a masala, of which there are myriad variations, weaving a complex and deeply satisfying whole.

A multisectioned narrative of the speaker's travels through India...[with] lots of lyric repetition, beautiful images. Though the work has a balanced, meditative feel, there are glimmers of unexpected humor.
—Sandra Beasley

Unique and informative...Roberts provides the reader with clues of India's rich multifaceted culture...as well as its mystery and draw. From its temples to its smell of flowers, food and fires rising up in pujas...
—Robert Giron, Gival Press

More Than Anything

More Than AnythingMore Than Anything (book)

Print: $12.00

Hiram Larew’s More Than Anything is a luminous jewel-box of a book. The tenderness and deeply felt thinking found in here will reverberate long after you’ve finished reading them.

Hiram Larew's More Than Anything is a strong gathering of rich and fully caring American poems. He is in the American grain with Emerson and Longfellow arching into and beyond the hiphop age as if that old lapland song Longfellow wrote of is ever beating with the thoughts of youth that are long, long thoughts. They are about will, hope, clarity, honor, rollicking good humor and peril.
Ed Mycue

Life is filled with tragedy and comedy, as well as secrets and evasion, yet only an exceptionally skilled poet can blend playfulness with profundity. Hiram Larew...is such a poet. More Than Anything is brimming with word play, intelligence, feeling and (seeming) contradictions...Reading Larew is like eavesdropping on Emerson having a beer with Frank O’Hara.
Kathi Wolfe, Washington Blade
