About the press
Though not their only interest, Blue Horse Press has a strong like for poetry of place and the relationship between lives and landscapes. Most importantly, they seek an economy of language with a keen focus on voice and image. They like a touch of Lorca’s duende that loves ledges and wounds, Kant’s “crooked timber of humanity.” They have no interest in work whose primary focus is the American political scene.
