Meow Press
Buffalo, NY
(c)1998
The Poet met the press and they were joined. At least for this staple bound project. Here's what Meow had to say about themselves in the late 1990s :
Meow Press was established in August of 1993 as a response to the New Cost festival and also the rapid proliferation of electronic publishing. In the case of the former, there is the hope that by getting involved it might be possible to reopen the anthologizing-closure process set in motion by that fateful gathering; that it might be possible to exist in a state where the printing of a book of poems might be - in the tradition of printer-poets such as Lyn Hejinian - an extension of one's own activity of writing. In the case of the latter, the romance of making books by hand that utilized the hot carbon transfer process as ultimately temporal ephemera, yet palpable physical without too much nostalgia for the Book.
An obsessive typography startup kit.
This is one of 300 printed. I am so lucky.
