If you want to read one of the more successful poetry chapbooks in this country, then go right ahead and read Jones Av. Otherwise keep your hands off. Schwartz selects poetry that speaks to what is human. The mostly Canadian poets he publishes reflect this vision. These are poems that act, however inadvertently, to include the reader in the poetic process. Recent additions to his cannon have reaffirmed Schwartz’s ability to recruit talent and present it with distinction.
