Bill Rasmovicz

Bill Rasmovicz is an American poet. He is author of The World in Place of Itself (Alice James Books, 2007), a 2006 Kinereth Gensler Award winner,[1] which also won the 2008 Sheila Motton Award from the New England Poetry Club.[2] Publishers Weekly likened the poems to "the haunted generalities of Franz Wright and the hunted, bomb-damaged villages of Charles Simic," in its review of the book.[3]

His poems have appeared in literary journals and magazines including Third Coast, Hotel Amerika, Nimrod, Puerto del Sol, Gulf Coast and Mid-American Review.[4] He has served as a workshop co-leader and literary excursion leader in Croatia, Slovenia, Germany, Italy, England and Wales.[5][6][7] Rasmovicz is a member of the Alice James Books Cooperative Board and lives in New York City.[8]
