Between Cup and Lip debuts
MU Press publishes Peter Manson’s first American book
Between Cup and Lip, Peter Manson’s first American book publication, contains 18 years of previously uncollected work. The book forms the missing link between two collections published in Britain, For the Good of Liars (Barque, 2006) and Adjunct: An Undigest (Edinburgh Review, 2005), demonstrating the continuum between the prosodically–dense, endlessly considered poetry of the former and the procedural work of the latter. Manson has taught at Cambridge University and other institutions. He lives in Glasgow, where he edits the small press Object Permanence, which carries on the work of the journal of the same name that he co-edited in the late 1990s. See also petermanson.com.
