7.25 x 8, 38 pp., Mi-Teintes Sand cover wrap, linen text.

Praise for The Scathering Sound:

"At times erotic, at times poignant, always passionate, Kalamaras writes with tremendous physicality. His words not only bear the electric charge of a heavily focused mind, a mind enthralled with linguistic muscle, that organ in the head called a tongue, but as a practitioner of yoga he writes from the perspective of a romantic fully engaged with the world. A romantic not in the sense of a flamboyant Byron, though there may be a little of that evident, but a Keats who has traveled to India and worked his tongue into a pomegranate in the hot dusty streets of Varanasi, near the Ganges." --John Olson

"Kalamaras laurels that part of freedom which knows no bounds except the crime of love. Read him sideways, read him backwards. This is the mouth of a cannon that fires at all conventional assumptions." --Alvaro Cardona-Hine

Copies are available for $6. Please contact the press via email for payment and shipping details.
