We have before us Tinfish (Poetry Puzzles and Games) 18 1/2, the handome Tinfish 19, from “Unincorporated Territory” by the Guam poet Craig Santos Perez, and “2 Poems” by Jozuf Bradajo Hadley (hand-writen–includes CD!)–all interesting, explosive, political–mind-and-English-bending work. Susan tells us that 19 might be the last issue due to funding cut-backs. We hope not!
