The new issue of Eric Greinke’s excellent small press lit. mag “Presa” has just hit the streets. In this issue Harry Smith ( the publisher of the famed small press magazine “The Smith”) has an essay titled” Poetic Personae and Our Fictional Selves.” The featured poet is ANTLER, who was much praised by the late Allen Ginsberg. There is also a review of Hugh Fox’s controversial memoir “Way, Way Off the Road…” ( Ibbetson Street) by Larry Hill, as well as a review from one of the doyens of small press reviews Charles Ries. The poets included in this issue are: Alan Catlin, Linda Lerner, Richard Kostelanetz, B.Z. Niditch, and Doug Holder to name just a few. Presa, in a very short time has made its name on the alternative press scene. Highly Recommended.
