Hot White Andy À La Carte

Cheng Tower

“Hot White Andy,” a long poem by Keston Suther­land that was fea­tured in Chicago Review’s British Poetry Issue, has earned its ital­ics. The poem hence­forth to be known as Hot White Andy is now avail­able as a stand­alone chap­book from Barque Press for $10 (plus $3.50 for shipping).

Allow us to men­tion in extended pass­ing that the British Poetry Issue of CR—which includes all of “Hot White Andy,” Sutherland’s “Roger Ailes,” nearly 80 pages of poetry by Andrea Brady, Peter Manson, and Chris Goode, crit­i­cal essays on the work of all four poets, fif­teen reviews of new British poetry, and everyone’s favorite poetry map—is still avail­able for $12 (ship­ping included) at the Chicago Review web­site. What’s more, the uni­tal­i­cized ver­sion of “Hot White Andy” includes a rep­re­sen­ta­tion of the Andy Cheng Memo­r­ial Tower (above), which the new ver­sion does not.

But if you do decide to order Hot White Andy, you might as well pick up the new issue of QUID while you’re at it. QUID 18 (some­times known as This is not “This Ain’t No Chicago Review”) gath­ers poetry from all four cor­ners of Brighton and includes a very, very smart essay by Keston on the indige­nous stu­pid­ity of poets. Yes, I said the indige­nous stu­pid­ity of poets. You’ll have to read it.
