Stories for Ways and Means features original "grown up" story
collaborations by some of this era's most compelling storytellers
from the worlds of music and contemporary art. Ten years ago Jeff
Antebi, the founder of music publisher Waxploitation, had an idea
to ask his favorite music artists and favorite contemporary
painters to come together and collaborate on original children’s
stories for a benefit project. The resulting 350-page book includes
stories from Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Frank Black, Justin Vernon,
Laura Marling, Devendra Banhart, Alison Mosshart and Kathleen Hanna
as well as painters/illustrators like Anthony Lister, Dan Baldwin,
Swoon, Will Barras, James Jean, Ronzo, Kai & Sunny, and more.
Guest narrators came along for fun as featured voices in short
promo films: Danny Devito, Zach Galifianakis, Nick Offerman, Phil
LaMarr, King Krule, and Lauren Lapkus. The project supports NGOs
and nonprofit organizations advancing children's causes around the
world, including Room to Read, Pencils of Promise, 826 National,
and many more.

Meet Kenneth Patchen, a prolific, ground-breaking proletarian
poet/painter whose most eclectic and wildly eccentric works are
re-launched in a single startling volume--We Meet, The singular
work of Kenneth Patchen has influenced poets, artists and political
activists for decades. New Directions is proud to launch a Patchen
revival beginning with omnibus editions of his unique compositions.
We Meet highlights Patchen's more outlandish side and includes,
like fabrics stitched into a crazy quilt, Because It Is, A Letter
to God, Poemscapes, Hurrah For Anything, and Aflame & Afun of
Walking Faces, Because to understand one must begin somewhere,
opens Patchen's fabulous book of poems Because It Is: perhaps the
most ideal reason for such a melting pot of poetry. Open any page
at random and find Patchen protesting the Second World War (A
Letter to God), or telling the tale of how hot water first came to
be tracked onto bedroom floors (Aflame and Afun of Walking Faces),
or informing the reader what happened when the nervous vine
wouldn't twine (Because It Is), or why he loathes those who act as
if a cherry were something they personally thought up (Hurrah For
Anything), or answering what he wants out of life: let's say--no
matter (Poemscapes).
