Swim Poems (Ghostbird, 2022)

November 19, 2022 by Steve Mentz

I’m excited to announce the publication of my first chapbook of poems! Swim Poems came out in late October, when I was sick with Covid and isolating on a farmhouse in rural Bavaria.

It’s available to order from Ghostbird Press.

With thanks to Peter Vanderberg for editorial magic, and to James and Thomas Vanderberg for gorgeous artwork.
