Terrorism is What Whale by Michael Sikkema & Elizabeth Workman (2014)


 Terrorism is What Whale

Michael Sikkema & Elizabeth Workman

Grey Book Press

(c)2014

A chapbook like this is a broader story than what is contained in the 39 pages of staple-bound beauty that as an object it is. It's a story of the publisher who runs the press and the two poets who collaborated on the melding of the work. It's about the cover designer, Erik Brandt, as well as Scott Sweeney, the publisher. It's an entire package. And at the very least an acknowledgment of their collective accomplishment. Which I just did.
