REVIEWS

“I wouldn’t want to conclude this review without also briefly highlighting the importance of accessibility in Beachy-Quick and Rice’s Primer. Free Poetry Press provides its chapbooks and books on poetics free of charge and without copyright, encouraging readers to download and circulate their works as they see fit. This method of dissemination in our age of late-stage capitalism is as refreshing as Primer; that is, poetry’s connection to the greater world as illustrated in Primer is directly embodied in how Free Poetry Press makes this text available to its readership.”
