Switched-On Gutenberg
______
An Electronic Poetry Journal of the English-Speaking World
by Jana Harris, Editor
For the theme for our current issue of Switched-on Gutenberg (Vol. 4, #2) the editors
chose
Food/Hunger/Sustenance. With all the connotations and denotations
implicit
in this subject, we have quite an array of poems, which the co-editors
have
arranged like the menu for a seven course feast in a French restaurant.
In keeping with this topic is “The Kitchen as Theater,” this issue’s
celebratory reading, which will take place Thursday, April 27, 7 pm in
the
demonstration kitchen stage of Third Place Books, Lake Forest Park,
Washington. This unique performance poetry reading, directed by Marilyn
Lewis, will feature many of the authors included in this issue as well
as
the talents of a working chef. Food/Hunger/Sustenance will stay active
until the end of July 2000.
Our next publication, due out late this summer, will be
Switched-on
Gutenberg’s Millennium issue. The theme: Cartography—
where have we
been,
where are we going. The journal will be accepting submissions,
including
graphics, via Ms. Jana Harris until the end of April
2000.
In choosing poems for any and all issues, we’re always looking for a
strong
sense of voice, a unique vision, excellence in craft, and solid sense
of
content.
