Do you want to know what’s happening in writing today? If so, come on down to the Hammes Bookstore on Wednesday April 1st, 2015, at 7:30 for a blend of imagination (from two poets, and two fiction writers) so intense it spits fire.
Ae Hee Lee’s poetry draws on fairy tales from across cultural boundaries, and finds the unsettling spirits that live inside our experiences.
Bret Nye is working on a manuscript in which “ghost stories” emerge from metafiction and the weight of painful memories.
Matthew Pelkey’s writing blends a focus on personal experience and a career in music with urban life, particularly in Chicago.
Nichole Riggs’ work is informed by surrealism and a concept of poetry as an artifact of the subconscious.
This reading is free and open to the public. We hope to see you there!
