POETRY SUPER HIGHWAY BOOKSTORE

   Featured this week in the Poets of the Week section of the PSH 
   Bookstore:

   ROOMFUL OF NAVELS by CRAIG KIRCHNER

   In Roomful of Navels Craig Kirchner removes veils and ceremony as
   well as labels in acknowledging in very readable poems many of the
   navels he has known. He finds stories and mystery in ordinary moments
   extraordinarily told.

   "Incisive observation and deft wit inform this fine debut collection.
   Kirchner is able to move from the visceral to the profound with the
   flick of the pen and without ever losing sightof those twists of
   irony that keep him grounded and engaged with the world"

      --Dr. Jan Fortune-Wood
        Editor, Cinnamon Press & Envoi

   Paperback, 116 pages, published by CreateSpace, (February, 2008)
