Meet this week's #MainerMonday feature: Gary Lawless, part owner of Gulf of Maine Books, editor, publisher, and poet. ⠀
Through working with various communities in Maine for decades, he has encouraged and published the work of combat veterans, prison inmates, immigrants, and refugees. "The books I publish, the books we sell at the store, and the conversations we have all move us toward a wider, more informed, and more loving community,” said Lawless. ⠀
