Lent / Elegies

Poems by Nicolette Bethel, published under the nanopress publishing model by ‘A Place Without Dust Nanopress’, established for the purpose by poet Nicolette Bethel and editor Sonia Farmer.The nanopress is a single-publication, purpose-formed poetry press that brings together, on a one-time basis, an independent editor’s judgment and gravitas and a poet’s manuscript. The combination effectively by-passes both the poetry-contest gamble and the dwindling opportunities offered by existing poetry presses, while still applying credible ‘quality control’ measures to the published work.
