Miller's imprint

David Miller is now into his fortieth year in London. There’s no celebration as such but August could well be his month. In a couple of weeks he will be launching the Chax Press collection of Spiritual Exercises, pieces he’s been working on for some years. Tuesday this week saw a Blue Bus reading featuring poets who have published with his small press Kater Murr. This press has published some seventy items, mostly chapbooks and folded sheets, and mostly the work of new poets Miller (both a publisher and a historian of small presses) considers interesting or older ones he feels are underexposed. These little books produced without the aid of grants are as often given away as they are sold. So thanks to David for his generous contribution to the London scene.
