Which poetry book from our selection of five would you pick up on title alone? How does your vote change when you consider the authors? The final vote numbers?


  • The Lost Lunar Baedeker (21.43%) by Mina Loy
  • To Repel Ghosts (28.57%) by Kevin Young
  • Nights of Fire, Nights of Rain (35.71%) by Amy Uyematsu
  • The Flute Ship Castricum (14.29%) by Amy England
  • The Book of Orgasms (0.00%) by Nin Andrews

Poor Nin Andrews. I recall The Book of Orgasms as funny and far, far better that I feared it might be. The title doesn't seem as silly to me now, after having read the book.
