关于媒体

九音节出版社 is a chapbook press created by Adrie玫瑰 (AC ‘22) in partnership with the Boutelle-Day Poetry Center at 澳门葡京博彩软件. We seek to address ongoing inequity by providing a new platform for systematically excluded voices, including but not limited to women, BIPOC, and trans/LGBTQIA++ poets. 9SP is currently the only press at a historic women’s college in the US.

Smith students are intimately involved in every part of the press, learning about all aspects of the editorial process and the publishing industry along the way.

廉价的小册子比赛

每年秋季, students in The Chapbook in Practice: Publishing read the manuscripts submitted to our annual contest, learn about the publishing industry, and narrow down the manuscripts to a top ten. Those top ten get sent on to our final judge, who selects the winner.

Each spring, students enrolled in The Chapbook in Practice: Design study book design and production. Each student creates an interior design and cover design for the winning chapbook. 在23年春天, Amelia Burton designed the cover for our first printed volume, an anthology of women poets writing about the body.

We received almost 300 submissions our first year, and final judge Leila Chatti selected

欲望/半 by 巴希尔万岁 as the 2023 winner. Chatti描述 欲望/半 as “a lush read of infinite tenderness.的封面。 欲望/半 was designed by Margaret Valle ‘26.

My Hand Holding Tight My Other Hand

In this premiere anthology from 九音节出版社, nine contemporary poets embrace complexity and ambiguity, the uncomfortable realities of navigating intersectional womanhood, and reach for connection across experience. This collection creates space for both individual expression and collective catharsis. Featuring nine of the most distinguished voices in poetry today, it will change the way you look at yourself and the world.

艾德里·罗斯编辑. Contributions by Victoria Chang, Tiana Clark, Camille T. 邓吉，托林. 格力塔, Ada Limón, Layli Long Soldier, Aurielle Marie, Molly McCully Brown, and Sarah Vap.

“The Poem I Wish I Had Read” Series

We’re excited to announce the launch of “The Poem I Wish I Had Read,” a video series in which acclaimed poets discuss and read a single poem that they wish they had encountered as a teenager. In each of these video testimonials, poets talk about who they were as high school students, why reading these poems would have been transformational for them, and how these works altered their sense of what a poem can be. Enjoy the following featured videos, and check out the full series on 我们的YouTube频道.—马特·多诺万
