HOW TO MONETIZE DESPAIR by Lisa Mottolo

A sharp, strange, and darkly funny poetry collection exploring loss, trauma, absurdity, and the surreal logic of being alive. These poems move from sorrow to philosophy to neurotic caterpillars without ever losing emotional force.

VENTRIC[L]E by Jerrod E. Bohn

A lyrical meditation on love, heartbreak, and the dangerous architecture of memory. These poems ask whether love preserves the beloved or traps them, and what remains once the beloved has gone.

THE BOOK OF DESTRUCTIONS by Margarita Vélez Verbel, translated by María Del Castillo Sucerquia

A fierce and necessary collection that dismantles inherited power, patriarchal myth, and religious structures built to keep women obedient. This is destruction with purpose: precise, blazing, and fully deserved.
