“Breaking Crown” is an old school, hand stapled chapbook that really takes us back to our roots with previous presses like Full of Crow. There’s just something about a chapbook. We were happy to collaborate with Richard Loranger on this project. Richard produced the books, taking care of the printing and constructing. You can reach out to him to get one, or us.
From the Author:
“In June of 2026, I joined an online poetry writing marathon for kicks, with nothing particular in mind, and wrote for fifteen hours straight, unexpectedly producing a crown of resistance sonnets that leaked out of me in a torrent. And here they are, proffered as a chapbook by dear old Collapse Press. Thank you, Collapsatarians! I’ve rarely felt an urgency to get any piece in particular published, but boy did I with this, as it addresses how we might approach change in our currently broken culture, and keep a clear perspective as we move along.” – Richard Loranger
