Congratulations Neil Kennedy!

805 contributor Neil Kennedy’s first book of poetry, A Jigsaw Puzzle, is due out this fall with Finishing Line Press, and we couldn’t be more thrilled!

According to one review, Kennedy’s “poignantly quiet rhythm and boldly observant eye unfold a landscape that is defined often by the spaces between places and moments in time.” Which is no surprise considering Kennedy is a librarian in addition to a poet.

A Jigsaw Puzzle is on pre-order until July 9, 2021 and will be released on September 3, 2021. Read Kennedy’s poem “We Shredded Books on the Library Floor,” which was our final publication of 2020.
