Review
James Browning Kepple & Kim Gorannson, Couplet
"Couplet is an ingenious object: two poets' respective collections printed back to back. Each poem is faced, not with a blank page, but with the other poet's upside-down poem. Hey, it saves paper." (Rambles.NET)

dear pretend genii,
we are pleased to announce that we (the s? group) have purchased pretend genius. there will be very few changes to the current operation. we will try to conglamerize (we looked it up) all aspects of the empire (pretend genius and write this). dead henry will remain as our editor and point of contact for all matters relating to the press. other changes are internal and will be transparent to our lovers. an obvious change will be featured pieces published on the pretend genius website. we promise that we shall make up for past, current, and future laziness by acting on impulse. puny horblechumpsker. our goal is to not drive this publishing house into the ground.
thank you.
