The inauguration of Barack Obama promises to be a big day for a lot of organizations, but little Graywolf Press (at home in St. Paul, Minnesota) is extra thrilled: Graywolf author and poet Elizabeth Alexander has been invited to read a poem at the historic event.
Graywolf plans to publish the poem as a commemorative chapbook, Publisher's Weekly reports. The publisher also intends to reissue all her works, including the essay collection Black Interior and the poetry collection American Sublime.
