the Crab Orchard Series in Poetry 2004 Open Competition Award American Flamingo Poems by Greg Pape “My happiness is the poetry of Greg Pape. He’s Lorca’s demon in Frisco Jeans and a Chino shirt, praying on a Tejano squeezebox a poet of work and cantinas, love of place and family, and a spirit that redeems all sorrow in its plenitude. I can as easily do without Greg Pape’s poems as the high deserts and mountains of which he writes can do without rain and lightning. His American Flamingo is pure splendor.”—Garrett Hongo, author of Volcano Series Editor, Jon Tribble “You want to be the poet’s friend, because he makes you cry and laugh, to share his shadow and nuanced eye.…Greg Pape celebrates the delicate and daily exchange living beings make with each other. This is a beautifully compassionate book.”—Sandra Alcosser, author of Except by Nature Copublished with Crab Orchard Review 96 pages ISBN 0-8093-2622-1, $14.95 paper ISBN 0-8093-2621-3, $27.50 cloth Available at major retailers and independent bookstores, or from southern illinois university press ORDERS & INQUIRIES • TEL 800-621-2736 • FAX 800-621-8476 www.siu.edu/~siupress

the Crab Orchard Series in Poetry Series Editor, Jon Tribble “Victoria Chang… is a master of the thumbnail narrative. She can wield a dark eroticism. She is determined to tackle subject matter that is not readily subdued to the proportions of lyric. Her talent is conspicuous, and this book a most impressive debut.—Linda Gregerson, author of Waterborne Copublished with Crab Orchard Review 63 pages ISBN 0-8093-2618-3, $14.95 paper 2004 Open Competition Award Circle Poems by Victoria Chang “Nothing’s too large or small for this alchemical poet, from a KitchenAid mixer to Eva Braun at Berchtesgaden to the most serene rendering of an oceanside landscape. Her technical skills are flexible and powerful, her voice is fearless yet capable of great lyrical tenderness, and her vision—global, principled, sympathetic—is a gift to contemporary poetry in America during a needful time.” —David Baker, author of Changeable Thunder Available at major retailers and independent bookstores, or from southern illinois university press ORDERS & INQUIRIES • TEL 800-621-2736 • FAX 800-621-8476 www.siu.edu/~siupress
