#THEACCOMPLICES: Our Forthcoming Spring 2020 Titles

SPRING 2020:

be/trouble
by bridgette bianca

POETRY / AFRICAN-AMERICAN

This is the Los Angeles not shown on television and movies: the everyday minituatea of Black Angeleno life. If you’re lucky enough to be a part of it then you know this heritage was handed from one generation to the next.

bridgette bianca moves beyond witness and holds us accountable in the harsh-tender way we do when we love someone, but love ourselves more. White and institutional nonsense, beware. This collection is essential to understanding what it means to be alive in the United States of America in 2019.

–Sara Borjas, Heart Like a Window Mouth Like a Cliff

 


The Depression
by Mathias Svalina & Jon Pack

POETRY / SHORT FICTION / PHOTOGRAPHY

A dream-like collaboration of fables and photographs, and a surreal and shifting deep-dive into clinical depression, THE DEPRESSION absurdly expresses the mind and life as we both know it and don’t.

I went on a state-sponsored summer exchange trip to Germany when I was 16. I arrived in Munich with 49 other kids from all across the US and was picked up by my very excited host family, who screamed like they won the lottery when they saw me. I was then spirited to their home for lunch, a short walk in a fragrant wood, introductions to the giant family dog Oskar, dinner with the punk older sister and her staring boyfriend, then back home to unpack and crawl into bed. I hardly slept on the flight and had never felt so tired nor so discombobulated, being newly arrived among kind and strange strangers. The floor seemed to undulate, my bones felt like they were made of acid. Everything shone with brilliant unfamiliarity. I was alive in a different way–more fragile, unnerved, a sense of absurdity like a veil over my face… And that’s what this book feels like in me. Hugs.

–Sueyeun Juliette Lee, author of No Comet, That Serpent in the Sky Means Noise

ANNOUNCING: The 2015 CCM Compendium

by CCM December 7, 2015
written by CCM
The CCM 2015 Compendium, CCM Compendium

Cover design by Ryan W Bradley

CCM is pleased to announce the first annual CCM COMPENDIUM. This is an idea that’s been bouncing around in the back of my mind for at least a year now, and thanks to the help of Ryan W Bradley (who created this fabulous hardcover wraparound cover design) and dozens upon dozens of CCM authors, the idea is now a reality.

Acting as a synergy of present and future, the 2015 CCM COMPENDIUM will feature work by every author published by the press in 2015 as well as samples of work from every author with a forthcoming publication in CCM’s 2016 Catalogue. What does this mean? It means you can expect writing from:

(2015 Catalogue) xTx, Brandi Wells, AT Grant, Andrea Kneeland, Jayinee Basu, Sean H Doyle, Katie Jean Shinkle, M Kitchell, Darby Larson, John Colasacco, Jamie Iredell, Brandon Hobson, Mark Katzman, Ben Brooks, Ryan W Bradley, Kirsten Alene, Brian Oliu, Corey Zeller, and Evan Retzer

(2016 Catalogue) Janice Lee, Johannes Goransson, Alexandra Naughton, Dolan Morgan, Matthew Simmons, Gary J Shipley, Ashley Farmer, Laura Marie Marciano, Justin Sirois, Sara June Woods, Madison Langston, Carolyn Zaikowski, Tobias Carroll, Joshua Jennifer Espinosa, Andrew Miller, Ctch Bsnss, Wendy C Ortiz, Henry Hoke, Helen McClory, and Mathias Svalina

At the conclusion of every yearly Catalogue, CCM will publish a Compendium to celebrate the passing of the torch, of sorts, from one year to the next. Each Compendium will be published in a high quality hardcover edition, designed to sit next to both its representative Catalogue of titles as well as other, future Compendiums. It’s my hope that by offering this showcase, readers will be able to enjoy some of their favorite writers’ work in one convenient place as well as discover (and anticipate) the work of writers they might not have known about prior to the Compendium.

The 2015 CCM COMPENDIUM will be available January 13th 2016 wherever books are sold. We’re coping.
