4. Hi Wompos! Upper Rubber Boot's fourth book is now available in all of the most common ebook formats. Peg Duthie's Measured Extravagance employs sonnets and sestinas as well as open forms to lyrically document the messiness of grief and explore the complexity of devotion. A sample from the book is posted at the URB website (below) and her work has appeared in Dead Mule, qarrtsiluni, No Tell Motel, Boxcar Poetry Review and others.
