Excontemporary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781586541019)

Excontemporary, a collection of poems by Beth Baruch Joselow, was published by Story Line Press in 1993. Jousting with form and language, the book combines image and idea in a painterly style. It contains poetry of sharp observation, coalescing gracefully into a thoughtful meditation on the inner life and the everyday. Mark Wallace, winner of the Gertrude Stein Prize in poetry, was among many that met Excontemporary with high praise: "Joselow's poems discover, and uncover, keen truths that always surprise and unsettle and make us think again about things we believed we understood."
