Who We Are
Terrapin Books is a small press specializing in poetry books. We publish books by individual authors, an occasional anthology, and a small number of craft books.
We have published collections by Neil Carpathios, Lynne Knight, Jessica de Koninck, Christine Stewart-Nunez, Carolyn Miller, Patricia Clark, Susanna Lang, Hayden Saunier, and Michelle Menting. It is a great pleasure to usher these wonderful books into the poetry world. We will soon be announcing the poets selected from our most recent open reading period.
We have published two anthologies, The Doll Collection and, most recently, The Book of Donuts.
We have also published The Crafty Poet II: A Portable Workshop, edited by Diane Lockward. This is the companion volume to the original The Crafty Poet: A Portable Workshop, now available in a revised edition from Terrapin Books.
We are thrilled that Terrapin Books has received positive attention from such places as Poetry Daily, Verse Daily, The Missouri Review, and Ted Kooser's American Life in Poetry. Our books have been reviewed in a number of places including the Washington Independent Review of Books, The Broadkill Review, Broad Street Review, Escape into Life, and Rain Taxi Review of Books.
We congratulate Lynne Knight whose book, The Persistence of Longing, was a finalist for the Northern California Book Award in Poetry as one of the best works by a northern California poet published in 2016.
