We
count on poets to help us see and feel more clearly and deeply, and David
Petruzelli of NYC and Sarah Hannah of Boston deliver with unusual
sensitivity, grace, and love of language. Both have had first books published
recently by Tupelo Press in Dorset, VT.
Petruzelli’s Everyone Coming Toward You was selected by Campbell McGrath for the Tupelo Press Judge’s Prize. His poems have appeared in Barrow Street, The Gettysburg Review, MiPOesias, The New Yorker, Partisan Review, and Rattle.
Hannah’s Longing Distance was a semi-finalist for the Yale Younger Poets Prize and was nominated for the Kate Tufts Discovery Award, The Norma Farber Award, two Pushcart Prizes, and the ForeWord Prize. She teaches poetry at Emerson College, is an Editor at Barrow Street Press, and—yes!—even plays bass in the Boston-based rock band “Whack Job.”
