Most readers on this blog will already know about the current serious threat to Coach House Books. The press is fundamentally important to Canadian literature, and has been a major inspiration for a lot of DIY-type publishing activity. It's an important publisher for under-the-radar writers and most Canadian authors with any publishing history have had something to do with Coach House in the past 40 years. The place is an icon, and I think we need it. There's an interesting online petition here, FWIW, that allows you to see who's posted and read their comments.
thanks for the heads up, Sally...may have to steal this for my own blog
