Poetry Night Out

TBA

Four talented Mason alumni reunite in this Friday night poetry reading. Joe Hall’s Fugue & Strike braids panic-inducing contemporary catastrophes with a long view of solidarity in struggle. Ana Pugatch takes readers through her travels across Asia and back to the United States in Engrams: Seven Years in Asia. In What Pecan Light, Han VanderHart examines a family’s long entwinement with whiteness and the South, revealing the speaker’s complicity in the institutions of whiteness. Michael Joseph Walsh’s Innocence is about the unknowability of the future and the intimacy of contemplating that future within the surveillance of the digital age. Sponsored by Poetry Daily.
