Recommended Summer Reading - Mike Gubser

During the month of June, No Tells is featuring "Recommended Summer Reading" selections by No Tell contributors.


Mike Gubser's recommendations:

Here's four books I've liked recently, three by modern American poets and one by an Albanian:

Bird and Forest Brent Cunningham (Ugly Duckling)

Irresponsibility by Chris Vitiello (Ahsahta)

Key Bridge by Ken Rumble (Carolina Wren -- about DC)

The Condemned Apple by Visar Zhiti (Green Integer)
