| 520 | |a "In 1988, Timothy Fay published the very first issue of the Wapsipinicon Almanac at his Route 3 Press in Anamosa, Iowa. Fay's goal was to offer a journal somewhat outside of mainstream Iowa journalism. For thirty years, the annual Wapsipinicon Almanac entertained midwestern readers with timely essays, works of fiction, news notes, art, poetry, and so much more. This book celebrates selections from three decades of the WapsipiniconAlmanac, so that readers can enjoy this important regional publication for years to come "-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
| 520 | |a "The Wapsipinicon Almanac was published by Route 3 Press in Anamosa, Iowa for more than 25 years. It was handmade on antique letterpress equipment by Timothy Fay and featured stories, reviews, essays, and poems. The first issue, published in 1988, sold out, and the publication subsequently became a staple of the Iowa literary scene. Each subsequent issue was a carefully curated collection of critical essays, short stories, book reviews, Iowa history, news blurbs, poetry, beautiful artwork, and charming black and white advertisements of the mom-and-pop businesses who supported the Almanac and serve their communities in every aspect from the arts to agriculture. Fay crafted each issue with a sharp but also lighthearted focus on Midwestern concerns-culled from a variety of perspectives. Now, Midwesterners will be able to peruse the best of the Wapsi in one volume-both text and images-along with an introduction from Tim Fay that will acquaint them with his rare, artisanal process and this valuable repository of Iowa voices and history"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
