Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
The Condensery is a micropress specializing in limited-edition poetry chapbooks. It was founded in 2019 by Jan Verberkmoes and Andrew Dally, two poets with an affinity for the impractical. Guided by a foggy but unfaltering conviction that the distilled language of poetry is best experienced through a handcrafted object, we strive to create books that bear the history of their making. By investing in the slow, deliberate methods of low-tech printing and binding, each chapbook becomes a vessel that holds both the labor of the writer and the labor of the printer. Our chapbooks are printed on a Vandercook proof press in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, and Spartanburg, North Carolina. All type is hand-set, all books bound by hand.
