Michael Klein’s latest book of poems, then, we were still living (GenPop Books), was a Lambda Literary Award finalist. His first book, 1990, tied with James Schuyler to win the award in 1993.  A collection of short, lyric essays, States of Independence just won the 2011 BLOOM Chapbook contest in non-fiction judged by Rigoberto Gonzalez and will be published in the fall of 2012. Recent work appears in Fence, Tin House, Lumina and Ocean State Review. And his new book of poems, The Talking Day, will be published in 2013 by Sibling Rivalry Press. He teaches in the MFA Program at Goddard College in Vermont and has a blog at boysinger.wordpress.com.
