Birds, LLC, an independent poetry press based out of Austin, Minneapolis, New York, and Raleigh, will flock to Brooklyn’s Stain of Poetry series this Friday to celebrate the release of new books by Sommer Browning and Dan Boehl.
Birds, LLC specializes in fostering a close working relationship between author and editor. Last year, it released debut books by Elisa Gabbert and Chris Tonelli. Both books were mentioned on many 2010 best-of lists.
Both new books are debuts: Sommer Browning‘s Either Way I’m Celebrating and Dan Boehl‘s The Kings of the F**king Sea with images by Jonathan Marshall.
The ‘Birds’ folk also have two readings scheduled at AWP:
H_NGM_N, Lowbrow, Birds, LLC Wednesday, February 2, 9 pm at Duffy’s Irish Pub. Dan Boehl, Sommer Browning, Adam Fell, Matt Hart, MC Hyland, Brad Liening, Matt Mauch, Alexis Oregera, and Emily Pettit (whose book is forthcoming later in the year from Birds, LLC).
Wide Night reading, Friday, February 4, 6:30 pm at the Wonderland Ballroom. Birds, LLC joins forces with Bateau, Brave Men, Factory Hollow, Flying Guillotine, Immaculate Disciples, Minutes, and Pilot presses.
