Jacket 40: Hill on Lisa Jarnot's Some Other Kind of Mission:

In a quick dozen years, Lisa Jarnot has established herself as one of the most compelling poets publishing today. Always on the hunt for the “new” in poetry (is there such a thing? not flarf, not conceptualism), I look to Jarnot, seizing on any new work of hers that appears. When I chose to review Some Other Kind of Mission (SOKM), though, I didn’t know it was a 2008 reprint (3^rd printing) of Jarnot’s first full-length book from 1996.

Spare Room (and the great Portland outdoors), July 18: Polyvocal

Dear friends,

We at the Spare Room are asking you to participate in an afternoon of poetry for voices  Sunday July 18.

In our business of bending literary tradition, we are working against the notion of literature as solitary act. We will be spending an afternoon in Portland, Oregon, out of doors,  performing and sharing works of poetry composed or arranged for multiple voices.  In doing so, we are looking back to the Greek Chorus, Louis Zukofsky's "A"-24, Canada's Four Horseman, and others, but you are as much encouraged to bring your own work, or re-imagine the work of others.

This is an open call, do pass it on.

Please let us know if you plan on attending, & any other information we might find useful for promoting the event.

Thank you.

James Yeary, for Spare Room
