[New-Poetry] from Susan Webster Schultz

[Anny Ballardini]

Dear friends--we at Tinfish Press are proud to announce publication of 
the following (which we spent hours today sewing and stamping):


L A N G U A G E _ A S _ R E S P O N S I B I L I T Y
by Leonard Schwartz . 2006 . $12
Design by Lian Litvin

This hand-sewn chapbook contains three parts:
1) in which the Israel poet Aharon Shabtai offers witness.
2) in which a publishing vision emerges from the rich sources mingling 
in Jerusalem.
3) a verse essay on poetic form in America by Leonard Schwartz that 
argues responsibility is the ability to respond.

Language as Responsibility is something of a departure for Tinfish 
Press, as its context is the Middle East, not the Pacific. But its 
author, who now lives in Washington State, argues forcefully for a 
poetics of publishing that crosses boundaries of language and difference 
(in this instance Arabic and Hebrew, Palestine and Israel). Such 
crossings fit Tinfish's philosophy, hence this beautiful chapbook.
