Cracked Slab releases their first book: Michelle Noteboom's Edging

Cracked Slab books was founded in 2005 by William Allegrezza and Raymond Bianchi as an "outlet for experimental poetry and mixed media work."

The winner of their first Heartland Poetry Prize, Edging by Michelle Noteboom is now available here.

In this deeply moving first collection, Michelle Noteboom takes a rigorous, relentless, and compassionate look at the body in its most vulnerable moments. Focusing on skin--as a wave in which the body breaks against the world, as a screen on which our most intimate communications are written--she probes human possibility, revealing how it can betray humanity, but also, how, ultimately, it returns to it. --Cole Swensen
