State Sonnets

Poetry. In STATE SONNETS, B.J. Best takes the venerable poetic form on a road trip, speeding down highways of romance, regret, longing, and sex on a tour that lustily wanders into a collection of fourteen-line postcards--pushpins that map the arcs and angles of love and travel.

B.J. Best's chapbooks, Mead Lake, This and Crap, are available from Centennial Press. He is the editor, publisher, and piano player for Desperado Press, which publishes chapbooks, broadsides, and the bimonthly "broadzine" Arbor Vitae. He teaches at Carroll University and lives in rural Wisconsin with his wife, three cats, and the occasional salamander in their basement. Visit him online at bj.desperadopress.com.
