the Cantab anthology

Boston Poetry Slam: 20 Years at the Cantab Lounge was painstakingly compiled and edited by bartender Adam Stone, and most recently updated in its latest incarnation, And Keep That Going: 25 Years at the Cantab Lounge. You’ll find the collection much like Adam’s drinks: hefty, well-crafted, and unsurprisingly strong.

These books were initially printed on demand by the Harvard Book Store, then produced at cost by Adam himself. To obtain one, you can order it online from Paper Asylum.


The release party for the first printing of the anthology took place on October 15, 2012. Our thanks to Marshall Goff, who was in attendance to document the event and share these photos; many of his photos appear in the book as well.
