As we wrap up the production season here at C&R Press, we are excited to highlight two recent releases and reveal this year’s future titles.
First, we have Terence Hawkins’s American Neolithic. In the words of Tom Perotta, author of The Leftovers, it is “a one-of-a-kind novel, a bizarre but gripping amalgam of anthropology, political diatribe, and speculative science fiction, a hard-boiled thriller.” When the last literate Neanderthal is implicated in a hip hop murder, his ancestry and people risk being exposed. His attorney, Raleigh, finds himself caught in a professional and personal trap that could destroy his client, his career, and much more. With this novel, Hawkins has crafted a prime example of satirical, thrilling fiction, and we are proud to present it to you. You can order it now from the book’s product page.
We are also delighted to present CB Anderson’s River Talk, a collection of short stories. A fiction compilation positioned in Western Maine, best-selling author Paul Doiron phrases it well when he says that River Talk is a “rare work of literary art that sneaks up on you, acquiring power and depth from story to story until, by the end, you realize that a master storyteller had been leading you to a surprising and yet altogether inevitable destination.” You can order Anderson’s authentic and moving fiction from River Talk’s product page.
After these two fiction releases, we have several forthcoming titles this year. For fiction, we have Peter Anderson’s The Unspeakable, David R. Slavitt’s Shiksa, and Elizabeth Kadetsky’s The Poison That Purifies You. We also will be releasing Brian Simoneau’s collection of poetry River Bound. You can read about each title and pre-order them from their respective product pages, and we’ll be highlighting them in more detail in future updates.
Exciting times ahead at C&R Press!
