Keeping It Weird: Poetry & Stories of Portland, Oregon (Paperback) by Justin W Price, Ann Privateer, Brenda Taulbee

The Poetry Box is proud to present its latest anthology project, Keeping It Weird - Stories & Poems of Portland, Oregon. Portland is a delicious melting pot of human creativity and sustainability. And thanks to our wonderfully, weird contributors, we are able to share the unique, quirky, sometimes bizarre and oftentimes wet tales of this town also known as PDX, Rip City, Stumptown, Rose City, Bridge City, and P-Town. Embrace the lively literary scene this town offers. Stroll the mossy cracked sidewalks and breathe in each of the four seasons through breathtaking imagery. Experience a city rich in tradition and proud of its river heritage. Discover the weird and the wonderful. We invite you to peruse these pages of poetry and short-stories. Pop open a bottle of micro-brew, join a band, start a compost meet-up group and fall in love with Portland. We sure did! And in the words of one of our poets, "we wish you were here."
