Rabbit Punches by Jason Ockert
“The writing is hip but not terminally hip, fun, at times very fun, and contains signs that the author is disturbed enough to be worth watching. He may tell us some new things.”

The Week You Weren't Here by Charles Blackstone
“Given the strength of the narrative voice, the reader quickly learns to read Charles Blackstone's sparsely punctuated prose...a fine first novel.”
—The Review of Contemporary Fiction

On
the Way to My Father's Funeral: New and Selected Stories by
Jonathan Baumbach
“Mr. Baumbach has more voices than Willie the Whale, more
accents than the people at Berlitz, a gift for parody, a detector
for cliché.”

Next
Door Lived a Girl by Stefan Kiesbye (Winner of the 2004 Novella
Award)
"Kiesbye's dark, distinctive vision of humanity, is composed
with such narrative skill and verve as to render the bleakness
bracing, the grimness utterly gripping. A significant and powerful
debut." Peter Ho Davies

Trouble
With The Machine, poems by Christopher Kennedy
"Singular and deeply pleasurable. Chris Kennedys
prosetry is a lonely anarchic nation-state unto itself, half vacation
funspot, half eerie purgatorial layover." Dave Eggers

B:
a novel by Jonathan Baumbach
"Jonathan Baumbach's 10th novel, B,
is the book to read if you're sick of other books, something to
beat the worst case of reader's block."

From Mitki/Mitki Press, Out Of Print:
Nietzsche's
Horse, poems by Christopher Kennedy
"A haunting, complex, and very beautiful book.
Kennedy has a deep understanding of American longing and the inevitable
losses associated with that longing and, because he is a powerful
artist, is able to make from that loss a wonderful victory: this
moving portrait of the human heart examining itself."George
Saunders
