4. Lesley Wheeler reflects on occasional poems this week in her blog The Cave, The Hive: Poetry, Conversation, Community. Asked to commemorate coeducation at her own institution, she wonders: how do you celebrate an event that elicited prejudice and hostility from some community members?

5. Margo Berdeshevsky's new poetry collection from Sheep Meadow Press: (almost here!!)
Coming out in September...ready for pre-order on Amazon or UPNE... oh, do do do order it!!
"BETWEEN SOUL & STONE" sheepmeadowpress.com/all-authors/margo-berdeshevsky/
to pre-order on Amazon: tinyurl.com/3duvqmg
www.amazon.com/Between-Soul-Stone-Margo-Berdeshevsky/dp/1931357862/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1306472396&sr=1-4
Each page [of Between Soul & Stone] is immaculate as Margo Berdeshevsky wanders with fire from George Herbert to Cassandra to the silence of the sun before the wounded moon:
“The pigeon has found a crippled / moon who will not stand again for days. Has / found water’s silence / and the winter wren trusts me.”
Her ways are the fantastic, the pathos of “love’s famine,” and a mastery of emotion in her Fπrost-deep meditation in “Alone in the Old One’s House”:
“a hamlet’s umber / roofs any piper could lead children up / to, any troubadour––lute for a raven.”
She recalls France of her childhood and now that sustains her wandering world:
“Somewhere on the Seine, a motorboat, three/ monks in gray cassocks and life-vests reach.” "Between Soul & Stone" is a book of measured splendors. —WILLIS BARNSTONE
6. Upper Rubber Boot Books is publishing 140 And Counting, which contains work by wom-po-ites Wendy Babiak and Heather Kamins, as well as 55 other women writers, and is edited by wom-po-ite Joanne Merriam. URB is fund-raising at Kickstarter here:
and a $5 donation effectively acts as a pre-order of the ebook.
