Disorder by Concetta Principe is poetry that explores the metaphorical relationship between the home and the mind, where a home should be place of sanctuary but can have its safe borders destabilized by mental illness – https://www.gordonhillpress.com/collections/titles/products/disorder.
Crazy / Mad by AJ Dolman is a collection of poems that whimper, rail and spin against continued psychological, personal and political oppressions at the human and institutional levels, including heteronormativity, monosexism and ableism – https://www.gordonhillpress.com/collections/titles/products/crazy-mad.
Blasphemy and Other Ancestors by Padgett Powell, Darius James, Lee Henderson, and Jean Marc Ah-Sen is comprised of four novellas that explore the tag end of existence and the abasements that memory holds for characters living outside of their time – https://www.gordonhillpress.com/collections/titles/products/blasphemy-and-other-ancestors.
