Pics from Vic
Thanks to everyone who came out to help us celebrate the release of Victor in the New World. The readers were hot. Ara Vora was smoking. And it was a good thing because it was the coldest day of the year.

"Chad Reynolds's book of masterful poems about the 'Wild Boy' is even better than Truffaut's film. Brilliant in concept and accomplishment, Victor in the New World is the debut of a great new poet. This is something extraordinary." --Bill Knott
