Steve Castro’s Blue Whale Phenomena

My friend (and former student and fellow poetry editor at decomP) Steve Castro has just had his first poetry book published! It’s called Blue Whale Phenomena and it’s been beautifully designed by Otis Books/Seismicity Editions from Otis College of Art and Design. They’ve published tons of great books, including Forrest Gander’s Panic Cure: Poetry from Spain for the 21st Century. With a truly unique poetic voice and excitement and surprises that unsettle and delight on every page, this book is one to take with you into the forest.

You can snag a copy from SPD or Amazon.
