"Luckily for Derek White, the founder of Calamari Press, there are no pigs in his stable, and any dressing up he's done—in the form of videos and slideshows on the press's Web site, Facebook, YouTube, MySpace, and his blog, 5¢ense—has merely drawn attention to that fact." Kevin Larimer, Poets & Writers "Founded by Derek White (creator of Sleepingfish magazine) and only a few years old, Calamari Press out of New York City, is creating a buzz for itself publishing texts that are unconventional, yet eminently readable...." -Robert Bell, for New Orleans Review "Calamari Press titles and its journal, SleepingFish, are environments in book-object form ... As inside the abandoned museum, inside Calamari Press publications the world is included in the reading, and the world is also the book, there for our reading." -Selah Saterstrom, in Tarpaulin Sky
