They say big things come in small packages and the same can be said about literary presses. Some of the biggest, and most surprising, stories are being published by small and independent publishers. This book discussion will read four examples from small and independent presses across the US (all are available through Amazon or directly through the publisher). Join us this summer for a discussion of these unique finds. Space is limited.

1. "Hazardous Spirits" by Anbara Salam (Tin House Books)

2. "Cacophony of Bone: The Circle of a Year" by Kerri ni Dochartaigh (Milkweed Editions)

3. "The Crocodile Bride" by Ashleigh Bell Pedersen (Hub City Press)

4. "Knives, Forks, Scissors, Flames" by Stefan Kiesbye (Panhandler Books)
