T H E G I G # 2
is now out, after a prolonged struggle with the laser printer. It includes
poetry by Allen Fisher, Peter Manson, Erin Moure, RF Langley, Clark
Coolidge, Drew Milne, Lissa Wolsak, Robert Sheppard, Gavin Selerie and Tony
Lopez; an essay by Robin Purves on JH Prynne's _Not-You_ and Prynne's
critical reception; and reviews by Pete Smith and myself.
_The Gig_ is devoted to new work from the US, Canada, UK & Ireland, with an
especial slant towards the last two. Some copies of issue #1 are still
available, containing poetry by Deanna Ferguson, Alan Halsey, Lisa Jarnot,
Trevor Joyce, Peter Riley, Maurice Scully, Pete Smith and John Wilkinson; &
an essay by Wilkinson on John Wieners and schizophrenia. -- No unsolicited
submissions, please.
I'd also like to announce the special November issue of the magazine
(#4/5): a double-issue devoted to criticism on the work of the British poet
Peter Riley. It will have essays by Andrew Crozier, Peter Middleton, Peter
Larkin, James Keery, Tony Baker, Ken Edwards & many others; a new
interview, conducted by Keith Tuma; new work of Peter Riley's; and a select
bibliography of his poetry and prose. There will be a separate
announcement about this issue later this year; for the moment, I'll simply
note that new subscribers who wish to start with issue #2 should note the
slightly higher price given below, as a result of the added expense of
#4/5.
