MOONLOVE press

MOONLOVE press is an independent poetry chapbook publisher founded with a commitment to intimate, handcrafted editions that foreground the poem as a physical and auditory experience. The press operates at the intersection of traditional bookmaking and contemporary poetics, often producing limited runs that emphasize design, typography, and the tactile encounter with text. Its catalog reflects a curatorial interest in lyric compression, experimental narrative, and voices that resist easy categorization. Rather than pursuing scale, MOONLOVE press cultivates a focused list of titles, each treated as a discrete art object. The press's ethos is one of care and attention: to the poet's line, to the reader's hand, and to the book as a site of quiet resistance against disposable culture. It welcomes submissions that demonstrate formal risk and emotional precision, with a preference for manuscripts that cohere as a sequence rather than a gathering of unrelated poems.
