Forthcoming and recent publications include volumes by Jean Gallagher, Mark Neely, Georg Trakl (translated by Stephen Tapscott), and American Alphabets, a distinctive anthology of contemporary poetry. Our books are found at discriminating bookstores nationwide. Essential operating support provided by Oberlin College and by the Friends of Oberlin College Press.



	Oberlin College Press is hiring a new managing editor (Linda Slocum is retiring, alas). It's a part-time position; here's the job posting. If you know anyone who might be interested, please pass the word along.

	Philip Metres blogged about the fall issue of FIELD: "the journal is like a kind of polyphonic postcard--that intimate, that open."

	Timothy O'Keefe's poem "Little Alphabets," from The Goodbye Town, was featured on the Poetry Daily website.

	Mike White's poem "Love," from FIELD #84, was featured on Poetry Daily.

	FIELD is now included in CLMP's Lit Mag Adoption Program. Teachers who want to use FIELD in the classroom can get massively-discounted subscriptions for their students (and a free one for themselves).

VOICE-OVER

"These heart-breaking and inventive poems negotiate the oscillations of event and memory in order to reveal the delicate and highly filigreed interweaving--in our lives--of action, meditation, and utterance. Beauty and insight spill off every page of this rich, compelling, and essential new book of poetry."

--David St. John
