Pegasus Ring
The Pegasus Ring is a refreshing collection of poems as varied as life itself. From fine wine to political satire there is nothing too big or small to be considered. This uniquely private collection of poetic musings is now available to the public, and published in tribute to the sister who urged the author to write. The book encompasses the poetry written over the course of four years and is for anyone who sees the sacred in the mundane, the immensity in a bowl of fruit and for those who would like to become intimately involved in the vast experiences and reflections of another's life.

Horology
"Horology teeters on the brink; 'faience' and 'plumbago' float to the surface like literary flotsam but the vessel is never quite sunk. Words are strung like trade beads carrying faint signs of meaning along with their chief task of beauty, a miraculous conjuration of song. As you look at the collected bones and feathers in this Kunstkammer, suddenly it wriggles free, not a shipwreck, not an archive, but a living creature. The clock and the poem are as close as we have come to making parts cohere into a living organism. Imagine Verlaine transcribing lyrics for an opera drawn from a Burtonian study of seafaring and clocks: 'a chanticleer of fo'c'sle songs' indeed." —Martin Corless-Smith"Derek Gromadzki's Horology marks a significant advance from his first book, Pilgrimage Suites, which itself, more completely than most debuts, announced a poet already making his own sound. In Horology, Gromadzki makes his own world, and it is a world shaped by an attention to the word more focused than any other I know in contemporary poetry. And yet Horology is also a welcoming book. And yet Horology is a new poetry made new again." —Shane McCrae
