This is Nick Germanacos’ fourth and final book of poetry.
Entering the Yiddish language through Russian, "Nu" is a multivalent word that defies definition. When ued interrogatively, the closest English Equivalent is "Well?" or "So?" But it’s a word that conveys much more. Depending on tone, "Nu?" can convey impatience, caring, curiosity, or excessive personal investment in the answer—or all simultaneously.
Nu?—So? is published by Firehouse press and is distributed by Ayin Press.
