Rupert Fike

Rupert Fike's second poetry collection, Hello the House, was named one of the "Books All Georgians Should Read, 2018" by The Georgia Center for the Book. It also won the Haas Poetry Prize from Snake Nation Press. His stories and poems have appeared in The Southern Poetry Review, The Georgetown Review, A&U America's AIDS Magazine, The Buddhist Poetry Review, Natural Bridge and others. He has a poem inscribed in a downtown Atlanta plaza, and his non-fiction, Voices from The Farm, examines life on a 1970s spiritual commune.
