Exam and Desk Copies

We are glad to ship a free examination copy of up to three titles per semester to qualified instructors who are considering New American books for inclusion in their courses. If your bookstore has already placed an order of ten copies or more, we will ship a free desk copy for the intructor as well.

Please email your exam/desk copy request—including the title of the book, the name of the course, projected enrollment, your mailing address, and your daytime phone number—to Tom Wells, Sales and Marketing Director. Please allow 4 weeks for delivery.

updates

We are pleased to announce that Kelly Cherry has named Peter Filkins's collection, Augustine's Vision, the winner in our summer 2009 chapbook contest. It is now available.

Our annual full-length fiction contest, to be judged by Lee K. Abbott, is now closed. Readers will soon forward finalists to Mr. Abbott for review.

Thomas E. Kennedy's new novel, In the Company of Angels, was released by Bloomsbury in March 2010, but we thought it only fair that you take a look at his new novel-in-essays published by New American Press called (with thanks to Steve Davenport) Last Night My Bed a Boat of Whiskey Going Down.
