>This is something of coup for Redivider. They’ve just published online an excerpt from Robert Olen Butler’s new collection of short-shorts, Intercourse. I heard him read from this collection as well as his earlier collection, Severance, earlier this year at AWP in New York. Check out the sample at Redivider.
