Books by Lisa Martinovic´

Lisa has written, illustrated, designed and produced eight chapbooks, the most recent two of which are currently in print.

Her first book, Adventures in Coming Alive features intense, visceral poetry about addiction, child abuse and painful things in general.

A long-overdue sense of humor and a more prose-like style are reflected in her second book The distance from San Francisco to Hogeye is not as far as you think. And Much Farther.

Her third book, Dreaming Over the Edge, is stylistically distinct as well, consisting entirely of poems inspired by that which visits her in the night.

The definitive collection of her comedic poetry is featured in her fourth book, Poemedy.

In Jim Bob Gets a Lap Dance, Lisa deconstructs one thrilling, albeit tawdry, chapter of her recent life.

In The Hogeye Observer, Lisa offers poignant and sometimes humorous reflections on life in rural Arkansas.

With Canary in the Mind, Lisa covers considerable territory, getting into the skin of some deeply strange characters, revealing yet more of her own shadow, and exposing the personal costs of political choices.


Lisa's latest chap,
The Truth about Her Lips, brings you 54 pages of scathing slam poems, tender love poems, color artwork, KQED-FM commentaries, essays featured in the San Francisco Chronicle and . . . a centerfold!

Lips is available for $10.00 and Canary for $5.00. Plus $1.00 each for mailing.
