Kevin Killian is a poet, novelist, critic, and playwright whose writing has been said to have "tilted the world a little more askew, giving us a prismatic perspective on love, sexuality, and aesthetics."
Joseph Lease's critically acclaimed books of poetry include Broken World (Coffee House Press, 2007) and Human Rights (Zoland Books, 1998). His poem "'Broken World' (for James Assatly)" was included in the anthology The Best American Poetry 2002 (Scribner, 2002). Of Broken World Marjorie Perloff comments: "The poems . . . are as cool as they are passionate, as soft-spoken as they are indignant, and as fiercely romantic as they are formally contained. . . . [They] are spellbinding in their terse and ironic authority."
