Jack White establishes Third Man Books
The first release will be an anthology with offerings from Richard Hell, William Tyler, Destruction Unit and others.
Jack White has launched Third Man Books, a book publishing imprint that shares the name of his record label. White has already announced the first release, Language Lessons: Volume I, a 321-page hardcover book of poetry, prose, and art that will be available August 5. Contributing poets and authors include Richard Hell, the Pulitzer-nominated Dale Ray Phillips, National Book Award finalist C.D. Wright, Pulitzer and National Book Award finalist Adrian Matejka, Tav Falco, and others.
The release will be accompanied by a 2xLP compilation featuring William Tyler, Destruction Unit, Ken Vandermark, Sampson Starkweather, and more, along with five broadside poems suitable for framing.
A press release for Language Lessons: Volume I describes those involved: "The occupations of the anthology’s contributors range from teachers, morticians, librarians, software developers, actors, and taco chefs to bartenders, farmers, musicians, and parents. Although from all over America (and beyond), almost 90% of the contributors read in Nashville at a DIY series called Poetry Sucks."
