Mark Pirie edits a posthumous book by Michael Duffett (USA)

Friday, February 7, 2020 by Mark Pirie

February 2020 sees the release of a booklet of poems by the late Californian Professor and poet Michael Duffett (1943-2019). 

I put together the sequence, 20 Sonnets, from well over a hundred uncollected poems sent to me by the author as his poetry editor 2014-2019.

It is published in the relaunched ESAW Mini Series (No. 37).

I intend to preserve and keep in print the best of Michael Duffett's poetry. Duffett passed away in 2019 from a terminal illness. Further publication of his work may continue in archival form for research libraries and his readers. 

Here's the link to the publisher's blog:
