About the book: Written under the spell of an old Welsh poetic form, the poems in Anthony Madrid's second book, Try Never, unite the freshness and speed of children’s clapping games with the witty and cynical aphorisms of medieval gnomic nature poetry. The book, at fifty pages long, can be read in one sitting and, as Madrid says, “It reads itself.”

About the author: Anthony Madrid lives in Victoria, Texas. His poems have appeared in Best American Poetry 2013, Boston Review, Fence, Harvard Review, Lana Turner, LIT, and Poetry. His second book is called TRY NEVER (Canarium Books, 2017).
