Unbound Edition Press today announced it will publish Eleanor Goodman’s second collection of poetry, Lessons in Glass, which is the seventh book in her impressive body of work. The title is scheduled for publication in June 2026.
In Lessons in Glass, intimate domestic spaces and global political landscapes collide with unflinching precision. These poems interrogate what it means to inherit fragility — from family silences about miscarriages and torture to eroding villages and protest squares. “This profound collection is a confidently feminist intervention that pushes back on the limitations the world puts upon women and the human rights violations against dissidents globally.” -Patrick Davis, publisher and editor in chief

Unbound Edition Press today announced it will publish Don Bogen’s sixth book of poetry, Everywhere We Are. The title is scheduled for publication in June 2026.
"Don Bogen has written a book of poems like no other. As the poet mourns his late wife, he refuses easy consolation, and at the same time, refuses despair: the couple at the heart of the book shine up from the page with tremendous vivacity, just as Bogen’s lines and sentences, and his unique gift of formal invention, sparkle with creaturely particularity and warmth.” -Peter Campion, executive editor

It's a remarkable Mother's Day for Tom Sleigh whose new book, Rosie: A Memoir of Farewell, has officially arrived.
"Written in the immediate wake of his mother’s death, [Rosie] hums with the freshness of the loss, as if its coruscating sentences might will her back to life. And the life the book describes is a quintessentially 20th century American one, that Faulkner himself would have recognized: from hardscrabble poverty to an incendiary marriage to a devastating accusation from one of her own sons later in life. The Rosie that Sleigh summons here is funny, infuriating, irresistible, and often wise, as is the book itself. Read it and weep.” —Adam Haslett, winner of The Los Angeles Times Book Prize

"Over and over in Chronic Transience, I am seduced by a poetic voice that seems almost casual, the voice of a friend who slowly reveals — perhaps she has just discovered it! — a grand insight that I had not at all been expecting . . . Brilliant and sharp, poignant and witty, Chronic Transience is the work of one of this country’s smartest poets at the top of her game." -Kevin Prufer
