Simone Muench's and Philip Jenks' new chapbook Little Visceral Carnival was recently published by Cinematheque Press and is available for order.
The chapbook features twenty-three epistolary poems Muench and Jenks wrote - Jenks and Muench trade lines and when the poems are complete, they are revised - sometimes to aerate the poem and other times for consistency or both. Usually, the line breaks in the finished poem are not where they were during the trading process. The cover art is by the inimitable Kim Ambriz . Nate Slawson of Cinematheque Press designed the 5" by 5" chapbook, which features not one, but two linocut collaged lithographs. A sample of not only the collaboration, but of Slawson's (and Nikkita Cohoon's) fine work can be found on the first issue of Dear Camera which published "Dear Player" and "An aptitude for bird." The Press' catalog currently includes work by Joshua Marie Wilkinson, Adam Clay, and Ada Limón.
