“zirconium ash,” “Poetry Goes to the Movies” and “Crime Wave” featured in LA Taco’s “25 Best L.A.-Centric Books Of 2025”

Mike Sonksen included jimmy vega’s zirconium ash (What Books Press) and Suzanne Lummis’s Crime Wave (Giant Claw), along with the anthology Poetry Goes to the Movies (Pacific Coast Poetry Series, edited by Lummis), in LA Taco’s The 25 Best L.A.-Centric Books of 2025.

I designed the covers and interiors of the two poetry collections, both featuring artwork by LA artist GRONK, and provided original illustration and layout for the anthology cover.
