Poetry. Christine Scanlon's A HAT ON THE BED is a book of dazzling shifts, a "kaleidoscopic" work in which, says Elaine Equi, "spirits of the past and present speak to each other and to us, and in so doing assume new combinations with every reading. This is an exciting and impressive poetic debut." Kathleen Ossip notes the book's range: "The poet's keen mind lights on...theology, (auto)biography, science, Danny Kaye, grilled cheese sandwiches." The "poetry is sometimes impish, even jaunty, sometimes puzzling, always seductive and very smart," says David Lehman, who appreciates the poems' "strange if not wondrous changes and clarifications"--"a mysterious and exhilarating first book." A Hat on the Bed is the winner of the Barrow Street Press Book Prize, 2003.

<p>Gorgeous photos of real humans and simple design resonate strongly in this modern take on the tarot tradition. Each card in Gold Lyre Tarot represents the divine feminine of today's blended American culture and gender-neutral evolution. Real-life images leave you with the symbolism of everyday life rather than the traditional hermetic; insight will come a little easier to those beginning their tarot journey. Grounded in the same suits & archetypes as the Smith-Rider-Waite deck, the Gold Lyre Tarot holds 78 cards with an insert booklet description, and nicely complements other decks for those who are more intuitively advanced.</p>
