The Desert Mothers (Shearsman Library)

The Desert Mothers was first published by a small press in Mississippi in 1984, and contained several important poems from Nathaniel Tarn's early '80s period. This new edition revives the original chapbook, adding to it three other long sequences from the same period, as part of the Shearsman Library series, which is devoted to recovering significant out-of-print, or hard-to-find editions of modern poetry.
