¿Cómo Hacer Preguntas? or How To Make Questions: 69 Instructional Poems
in English Daniel Hales Literature, Poetry Publication date: April 21, 2020 Now Available for Pre-Order 20% Off List Price -- $12.80 ¿Cómo Hacer Preguntas? or How To Make Questions: 69 Instructional Poems in English explores the spaces from which questions arise—the memories, musings, and metaphysics we use to seek out meaning. Riffing on the literal translation of the Spanish phrase "hacer pregunatas," these sixty-nine (or are there?) poems focus on the making of questions, rather than the answering of them. To open Daniel Hales’ ¿Cómo Hacer Preguntas? is to enter a cabinet of wonders curated by a rad scientist, who, just possibly, returned from expedition in search of winged monkeys or coelacanths. Outfitted with a voracious curiosity and a nimble mind, Hales knows the best questions begin not with “why” but with “how” and that the search for answers is both more important and more satisfying than the answers themselves. Throughout this collection, Hales demonstrates an irrepressible wit, a musician’s ear, and a command of language that propels us past expectations to the very threshold of wonder. His charming playfulness may have brought us here, but it’s Hales’ understated tenderness that unlocks the door and invites us in. William Waltz, editor of Conduit & author of Zoo Music |

Albert Tucher's Pele's Domain Reviewed in Crime Fiction Lover
"Tucher made a good choice in setting the story in the midst of Kilauea’s eruption. It is not only an unusual adversary, akin to a hurricane or an avalanche, it adds an overlay of dread to the story – things are out of control. . . . Pele’s Domain is a quick fun read!" -- Vicki Weisfeld in Crime Fiction Lover
