The Moonstone Poetry Series Presents J.T. Barbarese
Goddesses and junkies, the Vietnam memorial and a neighborhood hangout are the coordinates of J. T. Barbarese’s Sweet Spot. His poems explore the emotional centers of whatever is fleeting in characters or places that will be instantly familiar to the reader. Barbarese masterfully evokes the specific land- and cityscapes of his poems. Sweet Spot confirms Barbarese’s preeminence as a chronicler of the heroic everyday, the telling detail, the subtle reminders of the human predicament hidden in habit and memory.
J.T. Barbarese has published five books of poems, his most recent, Sweet Spot (Northwestern University Press, 2012). His poems and translations have appeared in The Atlantic Monthly, Boulevard, Poetry, The New Yorker and The Times Literary Supplement, and his literary journalism in Tri-Quarterly, boundary 2, The Sewanee Review, Studies in English Literature, and The Journal of Modern Literature. He is an associate professor of English at Rutgers University
And since 2008 he has been the editor of StoryQuarterly.

Hi, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was
just wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks?
If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can suggest?
I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any assistance is very
much appreciated.
I constantly spent my half an hour to read this webpage’s
posts all the time along with a mug of coffee.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your
point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why
throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to
your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?
