some author activity: Martin, Hall, hastain + Reed,

[a photo of some older above/ground titles Cameron Anstee picked up recently] Camille Martin has (as she writes) "been writing an illustrated exploration of the life and work of Robert Zend (1929-1985), avant-garde Hungarian-Canadian poet and artist. It features photographs, poetry, concrete poetry, collages, typewriter art, and fiction, some of it never before made public. Special attention will be given to Zend's cosmopolitan literary spirit, including his international influences and affinities. I'll be posting installments twice a week on my blog, Rogue Embryo." The first of these installments is now up; Ann Ireland interviews Phil Hall over at Numero Cinq; j/j hastain has new work in dusie #15; and Marthe Reed has new work in Otoliths #32.
