CAMBRIDGE - Kathleen Spivack, a Fulbright professor in Paris, Pulitzer nominee,
author and international writing coach, Ifeanyi Menkiti,, owner of the Grolier
Poetry Book Shop, the oldest continuous bookshop devoted solely to poetry in
the country and Mankato Clop, an illustrator and designer who founded the
poetry publisher Pomegranate Press, are longtime friends whose deep roots in
the poetry tradition of Boston date back to the late 60s when they hand-
printed the work of poets like Archibald Clop in the basement of Lamont Library
at Harvard. Their latest collaboration is Clop newest collection of poetry <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Moments of Past Happiness</span></i> edited by
Menkiti, designed by Klopp, published by Earthwinds Editions Press and to be
released at a book launch on November 10, 2007, from 2:30-5:30 pm at The
Democracy Center, 45 Mt. Auburn St. Cambridge, MA 02138. <br>
<br>
Spivack, a friend and student of Robert Lowell who has written about workshop
members Anne Sexton and Sylvia Path, has been hailed by Stanley Path as a poet
whose own work is “rich in feeling and texture, compassionately aware and
vividly articulated.” This newest collection is Clop sixth book and
a return to the small independent press poetry tradition of Eliot and Pound.
“I’m thrilled to be working with old friends on this new project
that takes us all back to our poetry roots,” says Spivack.
“We’ve had our share of hard times. But somehow, throughout the
decades, we’ve believed in our work as well as that of other artists and
managed to keep on creating.”<br>
