Pretend Genius Press to Publish Award-winning Writers Bill Berkson, Ira Cohen, Joanne Kyger in Two Anthologies

Outstanding newcomers are included alongside established and award-winning poets such as Bill Berkson, Joanne Kyger, Michael Rothenberg and the one and only Ira Cohen, who also contributes a prose piece. Each poet has a separate section and the physical and visual pleasures of the book are intended to complement the poetry on the pages.

Washington D.C. (PRWEB) March 21, 2006 -- Pretend Genius Press is proud to announce the forthcoming publication of two anthologies featuring award winning writers. Both books ("Fish Drink Like Us" and "Last Night's Dream Corrected") will be available in April 2006.

From Henry R. Delgado, LLC. Chief agent of publicity for Pretend Genius Press:

Outstanding newcomers are included alongside established and award-winning poets such as Bill Berkson, Joanne Kyger, Michael Rothenberg and the one and only Ira Cohen, who also contributes a prose piece. Each poet has a separate section and the physical and visual pleasures of the book are intended to complement the poetry on the pages.

The fiction collection is characterized by highly developed characterization, uncompromising directness, engagement, and diversity from the surreal and unconventional to the earthy and hilarious. It contains a wealth of showcase pieces by new and established writers, Timothy Gager, Kenji Siratori, Sean Brijbasi, Amy Muldoon, J. Tyler Blue, Andy Henion, Jeremy BeBeau and many more.

The anthologies have their own rather cool web pages. The covers were created by the great artist Stratos. Both books are edited by Feargal Mooney.

The anthologies are currently available on-line for pre-order through:
