Circumference in the news: washingtonpost.com/books/2024/04/…
For now, The Treasurer of Piggy Banks is only available through our site, but it is waiting for youuuuuuu: circumferencebooks.com/book/treasurer…
"Though Shukla’s figures may bend under the material harshness of the world, they are not determined by it." Lovely way into our new books: poetryfoundation.org/harriet-books/…
@formal_feeling Last time we looked, they required a certain # of books/year that was more than our catalogue.
PUB DAY is better than Valentine's because you can now get this amazing BOOK: circumferencebooks.com/book/treasurer…
When I examine the poetry of old India I think surrealism is nothing new. When I read the poetry of Vinod Kumar Shukla I am certain nonsense has a grander and wiser history than logic.-Andrew Schelling on circumferencebooks.com/book/treasurer…
Hey friends, our next AMAZING book is almost back from the printer, so if you love perfectly imperfect poetry, small presses, beautiful bilingual books, and/or piggy banks, I highly suggest you pre-order a copy right away: circumferencebooks.com/book/treasurer…
Woohoo, our next book has a cover, out in Feb, but you can preorder now and you'll want to because it's AMAZING: circumferencebooks.com/book/treasurer…
Send us a note if you'd like a PDF galley of the forthcoming Circumference book: TREASURER OF PIGGY BANKS, the selected poems of contemporary Indian writer Vinod Kumar Shukla, translated from Hindi by Arvind Krishna Mehrotra.
We're so excited that THE RUST OF HISTORY is on the poetry list. What a great group of a book to be a part of! All love to translators.
🏆 The longlists for the 2023 National Translation Awards in Poetry & Prose, administered by ALTA, are HERE! Congratulations to all the translators, authors, & publishers on these exciting lists that span 19 different languages! t.ly/GKsi6
