Pushcart Prize XXXI: Best of the Small Presses

Edited by Bill Henderson, with the Pushcart Prize editors

Pushcart, 549 pages, $16.95 paper

This annual collection is eagerly anticipated for it’s my yearly shortcut through the luscious thicket of high-quality literary magazines that are not widely circulated. Dip into the 63 poems, essays, memoirs and stories in this collection to read some familiar writers but, more likely, to meet some new voices–who might grow into deep friends.
