Winner of the Fall 2015 Black River Chapbook Competition
A long poem in two parts, Retribution Binary is an unearthing of trauma and its many fractures. Baumann explores the psychological and spiritual mayhem of the loss of body ownership, how one both takes that back and can never take it back: " Hands laid on the body lay still in the body. Ghost leeches parasites of rotten wanting." Retribution Binary' s splinters dig deep, burrowing also into the psyche of the perpetrator. The text at once humanizes and exposes the criminal greed and apathy in him: " If the body is a crime Hell / His lips solemn His head whole / Her age is an appetite."

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Return Against the Flow by Susana Praver-Pe rez is a memoir-in-verse that travels back and forth between Puerto Rico and its diaspora, much like the island s pattern of circular migration over the years. Reflecting her personal journey across geographies and languages, Susana s poems move between English and Spanish, and capture the tempo of ambient sounds, such as drumbeats of bomba, or a black-plumed chango chirping at dawn. She unflinchingly explores the daily struggles Puerto Rico faces, while exuberantly celebrating the island s culture, its peoples, and the concept of return . This is a voyage via words the reader will remember long after turning the last page. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
