Congratulations to Gary Metras of Adastra Press for being named Publisher of the Year by Contemporary Poetry Review. The citation reads in part, "With no web presence and almost no publicity, Adastra Press of Easthampton, Massachusetts, has quietly built a solid reputation for itself as a publisher of short-run, handcrafted limited editions. Gary Metras continues the ancient and virtually lost practice of hand setting type and hand sewing the gatherings. Independent-minded, they represent the best in small press poetry publishing … Simply gorgeous work."
