Like many adolescents, fourteen-year-old Matt Bowen has no idea who he is. Anxious for connection and friendship, he embarks on a series of illegal break-ins, searching for acceptance in a world Matt says he never asked to be a part of.

In the rubble of post-war Berlin, artist Charlotte flees her past and everything she’s lost by responding to an ad calling for ‘strong women who can cook and do farm work’ in Iceland.

This debut novel celebrates the power of storytelling and art as ways to reassemble the fragments of Charlotte’s broken self and move her—and everyone she loves—toward peace.

Superfecta
poetry by Clay Matthews
Publication date: Spring 2008
ISBN: 0-9796255-5-6
84 pages
$13.95

SUPERFECTA examines our relation to time and memory with surprising energy and consistent empathy. The tension between system and chance connect Clay Matthews’ poems, balanced as they are between the abstractions of symbol and the immediacy of language. For Matthews, there is a thin line dividing the body’s physicality and the wonder of the mind, where “The cartography of a rat is the same for all species/ in that it is always a map of the unknown.” Matthews writes about our desire to identify mythos in everyday experience, and celebrates when it’s discovered amid our anxious and uncertain place in history.
