New work at A Dozen Nothing!

Happy New Year! We're excited to launch our fourth year with new poems by Jeff Alessandrelli!

The author of a short poetic biography of the French avant-garde composer Erik Satie, a short essay collection focusing on The Notorious B.I.G. and skateboarding, and a poetry collection–THIS LAST TIME WILL BE THE FIRST–that Rain Taxi deemed “immensely fresh and playful…rooted in a childlike antiquity,” Jeff Alessandrelli lives in Portland, Oregon, where he also runs the vinyl record-only poetry label Fonograf Editions, and co-produces the music/writing radio show/podcast The Steer. Recent work by him appears/is forthcoming in The American Poetry Review and Hong Kong Review of Books.
