Oberlin College Press publishes new collections of poetry by both established and emerging American poets, world poetry in illuminating translations, and innovative anthologies of poetry and poetics. This spring we are publishing Sharon Dolin's luminous translation of the prize-winning Catalan poet Gemma Gorga, which joins the latest volume by Pulitzer Prize finalist Angie Estes, Will Schutt's brilliant new translation of the important Italian modernist Edoardo Sanguineti, and the most recent FIELD Poetry Prize winner by James Haug. Our books are found at discriminating bookstores nationwide. Essential operating support is provided by Oberlin College and by the Friends of Oberlin College Press.



	With the publication of Sharon Dolin's translation of Gemma Gorga's Book of Minutes this spring, the publishing enterprise of Oberlin College Press is coming to an end, at least for the foreseeable future. Any further developments will be announced here. We intend that all our publications will remain in print and available for ordering.

	The contents of the first fifty issues of FIELD are available in a searchable database online here.

	As subscribers already know, the Spring 2019 issue (#100!) will be the final issue of FIELD..

	FIELD is now available for direct download from the 0s&1s e-bookstore.
