 RHINO Poetry Graphic Issue 2022 The fourth year is revealed! RHINO Poetry's annual graphic review issue features both emerging and established poets who tackle book reviews using innovative practices. Here are awesome books and reviewers: Machete by Tomás Q. Morín Reviewed by Octavio Quintanilla Adjusting to the Lights by Tom C. Hunley Reviewed by Matthew Thorburn and Preston Thorburn Doll Apollo by Melissa Ginsburg Reviewed by Sarah Sloat Of Mineral by Tiff Dressen Reviewed by Francesca Preston Água Viva by Clarice Lispector, Translated by Stefan Tobler Reviewed by Tana Oshima A Thousand Times You Lose Your Treasure by Hoa Nguyen Reviewed by Luisa A. Igloria Gut by Amanda Larson Reviewed by Kylie Gellatly Poetry: A Chapbook by Yuki Jackson Reviewed by Shalida A. Askanazi Both the books and reviewers inspire us to stretch our creative limits. The result is always nothing short of amazing. The annual issue is becoming its own contemporary art exhibition. We, as writers, are serious about exploring new ways to utilize words & images.  In this graphic issue, I also interviewed Cutter Streeby and Michael Haight. They published a hybrid book with poetry and paintings. You may like reading the interview as well.  I met Shalida Askanazi from my workshop at Vermont Studio Center. It was a gathering for experienced and emerging artists & writers; therefore, I was invited all to join Rhino's annual graphic issue at RHINO Poetry Reviews. She was the only person to come back with her review. I like those who reach for the opportunity to publish (which there are not many out there). There are two simple answers to our life choices, "Do" or "Don't", and I would like to choose to "Do" a new challenge like she did. Thank you for reminding me of that. Comments are closed.
