march

book of resurrection
By Mark Hartenbach. A profound collection of poems praised by poets and mental health professionals alike. This courageous book will not leave you where it found you…in the aftershocks of a life at its emotional end. We have much to learn from the author and his observations while hospitalized in 2004. Hartenbach realizes that he writes to live. Writing is breathing. The artistic priority of writing well coupled with the need to write to live gives us this important book and author brave enough to let us in. 55pg, saddle-stitched, 80# red poppy cover, 24# text, black end paper, $10, ISBN: 1589983394.
Mark Hartenbach is published in Nerve Cowboy, Chiron Review, The Temple, Rio Grande Review, Louisiana Review, Kiosk, Black Moon, Wormwood Review, Thunder Sandwich, and elsewhere, and has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize. His chapbook, Ten House (MonkeyBoy Press, Holland MI) received rave reviews from Janice Faye Fiering in Them Timple. Gerald Locklin praise him as one of the most significant voices out there right now. Reviewer Michael Basinski (SUNY/Buffalo) says “In all of small press there is no more saintly roving spiritually searching mind artist than Mark Hartenbach. Hartenbach is living soul-shivering, pondering, and roaring. Hartenbach searches the soul like a brillo at work on some baked on zucchini. I stand in awe. He writes ‘without insurrection, we have no resurrection.’”
