Bound Hare Press
Original and thought-provoking books from unique voices. Here, you'll find evocative and engaging. Poetry that is brutally honest. There are bad words and mature situations. Any book should be considered "triggering," and there are no warnings.
This is not a vanity press. Your credit card stays in your wallet.
