Fall 2021 Releases: Present Imperfect by Ona Gritz

Fall 2021 Releases: Present Imperfect by Ona Gritz
Present Imperfect
by Ona Gritz
Poets Wear Prada: Fall 2021
ISBN-13: 978-1-946116-23-9
Paperback: 104 pages
List Price: $15.00

This debut essay collection by Ona Gritz, NY Times-published writer and longtime columnist for Literary Mama, reads like a blockbuster movie. There is a heroine with cerebral palsy, likeable and indefatigable. There is family conflict, romance, and true crime. Ona writes on disability, family dynamics, and the murder of her sister's family with candor and passion. A critically acclaimed essayist, two Notable mentions by Robert Atwan, The Best American Essays, a Best Life Story in Salon, among the recent accolades, Ms. Gritz has gathered some of the best of her work from the NY Times Disability series, The Rumpus, Brevity, and more for this fine and most riveting read.

[These] essays and their attentive questions contain rich textures, with many moments of humor in the midst of hope, pain, and insight. ... Gritz's approaches to storytelling are subtle and detailed, while always attentive to large-scale issues and patterns. .... As readers, we are asked to join with Gritz in her descriptions of her disability experiences: her hemispheres, in myriad aspects. I was reminded of how the well-worn question, "why can't I be like everyone else?" becomes "why should I?" Gritz's striking, relatable essays affected me deeply.

Poets Wear Prada: 2009, 2020
ISBN-13: 978-0981767-88-8
Paperback: 33 pages

David Elsasser celebrates a generation’s moment of deliberation. Born during the post–World War II baby boom, a period of economic prosperity from 1946 to 1964, his generation, known for breaking with tradition and redefining values, is now reaching retirement age. One of approximately 76 million contributing to the Graying of America, the shift in population from forever young to Immitigably gray panther, Elsasser muses on the coming of old age in his debut poetry collection, a chapbook classic, first released in 2009, yet pertinent and still most entertaining today.

New York-based performance poet, native Floridian, recent MFA graduate and Cave Canem Fellow Robert Anthony Gibbons takes us on a transcontinental and transformative voyage, sweeping and spectacular, across the United States in search of America and self.

In his 22nd poetry collection, Held explores, with candor and craft, the psychology of perceptual blindness: how, blinded by faith, love, innocence, ego, tradition, prejudice, self-preservation, etc., we blunder through our lives — even as we seek enlightenment; and how such inattention can sometimes work in our favor.

Blogger Jack Cooper joins the ranks of Dorothy Parker, John Donne and Confucius with his haiku-esque witticisms: “ROMEO AND JULIET, EXPLAINED / You cannot live for love” [Monday, February 11, 2013]; “WORDS FROM A STONE / Both terrible and vain / to have sought love // at a time one felt so little” [Wednesday, March 6, 2013]. No candy-coated sugar pills served here! It seems Cooper’s systematic and objective distillation of his truth serves as an inoculation from fullblown despair. At the pinnacle of disaster, even its perilous aftermath, like a magician he produces the “aha” moment for spiritual uplift and buoyant rebound.

Iris N Schwartz’s debut short short story collection serves up nine shots of fast-paced short fiction that explore coming of age, romance & dating, family life, urban life, and the psyches of contemporary women from childhood through adolescence to maturity — both the sublime and the darker aspects — with humor, pathos, and wit.

A poet / song-writer on fatherhood — the good, the bad, and the scary — up close in the thick of it and then the birds-eye view. Smart, candid, often wickedly funny. The quirky title, strangely familiar, is a parody of Heidi Murkoff’s best-selling pregnancy guide, What to Expect when You’re Expecting.

“Phased II is a kind of love letter written in compressed forms of observation and meditation.” — Michael T. Young, American Book Review, January – April, 2018

The greatest strengths of Phased II are its continuity and its focus. It never strays far from the grip of the moon, and is therefore able to hold a grip on a reader. . . . I suggest reading it, pouring yourself a glass of wine, and then gazing at the moon encouraged by the knowledge that somewhere George Held is probably watching it too. — Benjamin Schmitt, At the Inkwell, January 27, 2017

    Joel Allegretti draws creatively and knowledgeably from the musical lexicon in Thrum, a work which paints the outline of its subject suggestively, acknowledging and circumventing the shortcomings of language for articulating a total musical experience .... Thrum acknowledges and pays homage to music theory, and illustrates the capacity of poetry for capturing more than just words. -- Daniel Crouch, Liebamour, Issue 3: The Music Issue, Sept. 25, 2011

    "A delightful, entertaining, and attractively presented collection celebrating our sidereal companion, the moon." — Phil Wagner, ICONOCLAST #100, 2008

    “These poems work a sort of magic as the pages turn. By the end of the book, one can almost see the pages glow with gentle lunar light. The words remind me to look for the Moon at night, like the face of an old friend.” — John Berbrich, BARBARIC YAWP, Vol. 12, No. 4, October 2008
