Description
We will be sending review copies to major media outlets and those that focus on issues of women's issues and motherhood. Museum of Accidents had several successful course adoptions, and The Pedestrians has even greater potential to be popular with academics due to its use of prose and poetry. We will be sending desk copies of the book to friends of Rachel Zucker who teach and those who taught her previous books. Poems from this collection have been published or are forthcoming from American Poetry Review, Kenyon Review, Ploughshares, Virginia Quarterly, and American Poet. We have over 3200 Facebook followers, 9100 Twitter followers, and a mailing list of 2000 people. We will promote The Pedestrians on all of our social media sites and on our website.
