Outside the Margins

"San Antonio Express-News "poetry columnist Robert Bonazzi gathers 20 years of reviews and profiles, essays and articles in "Outside the Margins." Known as the foremost authority on "Black Like Me" author John Howard Griffin," here Bonazzi focuses on poets and writers from Texas, the Southwest, Mexico and Latin America. His criticism finds threads of mutual interests, shared sources of inspiration, and stylistic confluences. Bonazzi also focuses on writers whose work has appeared in small and independent presses, providing the kind of insight only a former small press publisher/editor can provide. Bonazzi's reviews are both anticipated and respected throughout the Southwest. This is a major collection of his most important essays and reviews for the past two decades.
