This week, literature enthusiasts have plenty of reason to rejoice with the launch of two remarkable new poetry collections by veteran Minnesota poets, James Lenfestey and Timothy Nolan. Both acclaimed poets have partnered with esteemed local literary presses to bring these highly anticipated works to life.
James Lenfestey introduces his latest masterpiece, "Time Remaining: Body Odes, Praise Songs, Oddities, Amazements," published by the renowned Milkweed Editions. According to the publisher, this collection promises to be a "spry" assortment of verse, inviting readers on an eclectic journey through art, language, identity, and the passage of time. With unwavering candor and philosophical depth, Lenfestey navigates the complexities of the human experience, paying homage to the art form that has defined his own existence.
With "Time Remaining," Lenfestey further solidifies his standing as a literary luminary within the poetic circles of Minnesota and beyond. The poet's expertly crafted words masterfully balance introspection with an overarching sense of connection to the external world, articulating his vision through a medley of styles and structures that reflect the harmony and disparity between humans and language.

With the profound body of work that this veteran poet now adds to his repertoire, verse aficionados will be given a gift of unfettered insight that may encourage new discoveries and spark introspective discussions.
