New Books by NER Authors

March 23, 2021

Our prolific New England Review writers continue to amaze us with their March book publications.

Jessie Van Eerden, Winner of the 2019 Dzanc Books Prize for Fiction, recently published Call It Horses (Dzanc Books). According to John Englehardt, “…this novel shows us what we gain when we become outlaws in our own lives.” Jessie Van Erden shared a new look at the story of Mary and Maria in NER 40.3, and you can hear her speak more about it on episode 13 of our podcast.

Novelist and short story writer, Brock Clarke released I, Grape; or the Case for Fiction (Acre Books) where he approaches the art of fiction from different angles. Clarke has published frequently in NER, most recently with the story “Transported” in NER 35.3.

Kim Addonizio’s eighth volume of poetry, Now We’re Getting Somewhere (Norton), “…is an essential companion to your practice of the Finnish art of kalsarikännit—drinking at home, alone in your underwear, with no intention of going out.” Addonizio’s poem, “Thousands of Times Throughout the Day” was featured in NER 36.3.

Yusef Komunyakaa’s Everyday Mojo Songs of Earth (Farrar, Straus, Giroux) is a compilation of poems from the past twenty years of his work along with new poems. A New York Times Book Review critic wrote, “He refuses to be trivial; and he even dares beauty.” Komunyakaa is a recipient of the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry and was published in NER 16.1!

You can shop these March titles and more on the New England Review’s Author Books Spring 2021 Bookshop page.

New episode of NER Out Loud

Readings of work by Jessie van Eerden and John Freeman

January 11, 2021

Courtney Wright, with a microphone and laptop, records NER Out Loud.
Courtney Wright, undaunted by distance learning and a pandemic, hosts the NER Out Loud podcast.

What can love mean? 

The host of this episode of NER Out Loud, Courtney Wright ‘21.5 brings together an essay and a poem from recent issues of NER, both exploring forms of love that exist outside the traditional bounds of romance and family.

Jessie van Eerden’s essay “A Story of Mary and Martha Taking in a Foster Girl,” read by Francis Price, is followed by an interview between the podcast host and the author.

Next, Nimaya Lemal reads “Columbine and Rue,” a poem by John Freeman.

This episode was produced and hosted by Courtney Wright, a Religion, Philosophy, and the Environment major in Middlebury’s class of 2021.5.

Writer's Notebook—The Winter Forecast

Shelley Wong

In “The Winter Forecast,” the fashion runway becomes a hibernating place. As a California poet, I was thinking about winters elsewhere, the ones I first saw in children’s books and experienced when I lived in New York City in my twenties.
