Book Finds from AWP

I am back from AWP and though I can't say I attended lots of fabulous readings and panels (I spent most of my conference time in meetings with poets and publishers and searching the book fair), I feel my time was well spent.  I found a number of books I can use in future classes, some of which you may find interesting:

Moment's Notice: Jazz in Poetry & Prose, edited by Art Lange & Nathaniel Mackey, Coffee House Press

The Collected Songs of Cold Mountain (Han Shan, Taoist/Buddist hermit), Copper Canyon Press

Civil Disobedience: Poetics and Politics in Action, edited by Anne Waldman & Lisa Birman, Coffee House Press

The Alphabet Game, a bpNichol reader, Coach House Books

The Poet's Guide to the Birds, edited by Judith Kitchen & Ted Kooser, Anhinga Press

and available in April 2009, From the Fishhouse, an Anthology of Poems that Sing, Rhyme, Resound, Syncopate, Alliterate, and Just Plain Sound Great, edited by Camille Dungy, Matt O'Donnell, & Jeffrey Thomson, Persea Books
