Dina Hardy!

Dina Hardy, author of Selections from The World Book (Convulsive Editions, 2012), has received a Stegner Fellowship, a Maytag Fellowship, a Pushcart Prize nomination, and an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. Her work appears in numerous journals and anthologies, including Agni, Black Warrior Review, Lo-Ball, Transom, and Meridian’s Best New Poets.


Convulsive Editions is publishing her (first) collection: Selections from The World Book!

16 poems in a hand-bound chapbook with a letter-pressed cover. The run is limited, adding to the value.

chap·book/ˈCHapˌbo͝ok/
noun:      a thin volume of words: literature, folk tales, (in this case) poems. So called for the peddlers who sold these pamphlet-like books in the streets during England's Early Modern period: chap coming from the Old English word for trade, deal, barter, or business.


All a steal for only 7 bucks. That's right. Seven.
