ABOUT AMERICAN LETTERS PRESS
Established in 2011, American Letters Press is the publisher of work by the award-winning novelist and poet,
Richard Grossman. From time to time, the press will publish the work of other outstanding writers of literary
fiction and poetry.
For the past two decades Grossman has been concentrating on a trilogy of novels entitled, American Letters, a
“Divine Comedy” of contemporary life. The trilogy’s final installment, The Interstate Bingo, is forthcoming from
alp. The trilogy is among the 46 elements in Breeze Avenue, a 3,000,000-page work conceived by Grossman as a
literary analog of cosmic consciousness. The project will be launched online in its comprehensive digital form in
2015 and then installed in a reading room as a set of 5,000 unique printed volumes. An abridged 6,000-page
version of Breeze Avenue, presented as a deluxe, boxed set of eight printed volumes, will follow. Additionally, 20
individual books from Breeze Avenue, beginning with a new, revised edition of Grossman’s 400-poem pastoral,
The Animals, are being published by alp between 2011 and 2015.
