Today, Theodora shines spotlight on Yusef Komynyakaa for our first Southern Poet Spotlight on Substack. Through 4 micro-analyses of Komynyakaa's work, Theodora mediates on the work of poetry: "to see and name both beauty and horror, to hold metaphor up to concrete suffering without smoothing the latter into harmless image."

Check it out at Loblolly Press on Substack (or in your email if you're one of our subscriber friends). There are links at the bottom to support us on Bookshop.org and also to TIP YOUR WRITER. 100% of tips (minus platform fees 💸 😤 ) go to support your LP Substack writers. More tips = better articles.

Kristin Entler's debut doesn't flinch. Of Water Never Ceasing centers chronic illness and queerness with precision and lyric force — It's the kind of book that Loblolly Press has been built to publish because it forefronts an experience we often see diminished in traditional publishing or in society at large, but that we know through our own lives impacts so many of us.

This book is why we do this.

Pre-order closes June 4th. Signed first editions + original art prints by Kristin available only until then. Purchase: https://www.loblollypress.com/collections/preorder/products/of-water-never-ceasing
