Gaton's 1984 chapbook Of Grenada has been re-printed by Keith Gaustad and Jon Lohr of Teppichfresser Press. Both Gaton and I have worked closely with them to make sure that everything was reprinted exactly as the original. The only real drama was when the two wrote a page of endnotes for some of the dated references. Although Gaton was reluctant to do so, he eventually conceded, making them promise to "keep them tiny and sparce."
The launch party will be Monday, July 27th at the backyard of 2979 N. Bremen, or as Gaton and the old timers remember it, the Suds beer garden.
Gaton has agreed to read from, talk and answer questions about Of Grenada. This will be his first Milwaukee reading in almost a decade. Unfortunately as I will be out of the state, your humble host will be unable to attend.
The launch party will also be a going away party for Jon Lohr, who will soon be moving away for school.
