This blog is maintained by Douglas Messerli, publisher of Green Integer Books. Green Integer is an independent and innovative press based in Los Angeles that has an enormous catalogue and excellent design aesthetic. The blog focuses on twentieth century poets, established but for the most part obscure, whose innovative work Messerli feels deserves a wider readership. Many of them have not been translated into English, or only haphazardly, so the blog is of special interest to fans of international literature.
