The Orchard Street Press is pleased to announce the release of Joy in the Tomb of Hunting and Fishing by Craig McVay of Columbus, Ohio

Reviewers thoughts on Joy in the Tomb of Hunting and Fishing

“From the women of classical mythology to the ironic eyes of a prison teacher to the contemplative ruminations of farm families, McVay’s poems apply a magnifying glass to the losses—of family, culture, connection—that come with the passage of time…In a collection that gives equal tine to melancholy and acceptance, McVay’s matter-of-fact tone suggests that, no matter what, we must carry on.
-Steve Abbott: author of A Green Line Between Green Fields and A Language the Image Speaks

Midnight Exhibition at the Wheatgrass Saloon
by
Elizabeth Chapman of Palo Alto, California

A remarkable collection of poems that engage the reader in the mind and in the heart and, ultimately, in the soul.
"Elizabeth Chapman's most recent collection is a love story between two accomplished artists, one a poet and the other a painter... in this volume we hear the voice of someone who has known suffering, has felt deeply, and has a keen appetite for life."
-Francis Murphy, Professor of English, Emeritus, Smith College

The Orchard Street Press is pleased to announce the release of Modern Tapestries, Medieval Looms, the exciting new collection of poems from Carol Milkuhn of Saratoga Springs, NY

Of Our Fatherlessness, Beth Gylys, author of Sky Blue Enough to Drink and Body Braille writes: “A father’s sudden death is the nexus of this hard-hitting new collection of poems by Mac Gay. In a book threaded with tragic loss and existential angst, Gay manages to weave insight, wry humor, and formal genius in a way that one feels at once kicked in the gut and charmed by Our Fatherlessness, his most recent and powerfully rendered collection.”

The Orchard Street Press is pleased to announce the publication of Passages, an exceptional collection of poems by Linda M. Fischer of Swarthmore, Pennsylvania.

These poems cast a keen and attentive eye to the joy and grief of living, exploring them both with depth and grace. As she does, Fischer asserts the resurgence of life with fresh, vivid language. Nature speaks to her, and, through these poems, it speaks to us as well, telling us of joy and pain, and, ultimately, of peace.
