New Release: John Yamrus SELECTED POEMS: The DIRECTOR’S CUT (Concrete Mist Press, York PA, 2022) 528 pages

 


Received today a copy of John Yamrus’s new book, an expanded edition of his Selected Poems published in 2021 by Heath Brougher’s Concrete Mist Press: https://www.amazon.com/Selected-Poems-John-Yamrus/dp/1736893513




The book is simply and beautifully designed! And massive in size- over 500 pages.

 

Mish Murphy has done an incredible job to update her original work on Yamrus’s Selected Poems (2021) through her meticulous editing and refreshing of the book’s cover.

 

I had a small part to play in the creation of this incredible book. I wrote the INTRODUCTION and suggested to John Yamrus, editor Mish Murphy and publisher Heath Brougher a few dozen poems I would recommend in an expanded edition. 

 

Terrific to see included at the end of the book an illustration by the Swedish artist Janne Karlsson who had a massive influence in promoting Yamrus’s work over the last ten years or so, especially through Epic Rites Press.
