I'm thrilled to announce a new reading series in San Francisco at THE COMMON (1077 Mission Street at 7th. ONE BLOCK from CIVIC CENTER BART). The inaugural reading features JULIANA SPAHR and ROB FITTERMAN. It all goes down THURSDAY, JANUARY 13th at 7:30 p.m. It costs $5. This is a good one!
I hope to see you there!

ReplyDeleteFantastic. I know this has been an issue out there--everywhere, of course--and so very happy to hear that, not surprisingly, Brandon & Co have attended to access. Yay. See you soon--solidarity, d
ReplyDeleteit was great. thanks for putting it together.
ReplyDeleteMichelle-- great to hear it was as good as I figured it would be. I love JS's work and Rob's... wish I'd been within a couple hundred miles in order to go myself. Oh, and Brandon, since it's his new series, put together the blog post, and just passed said info along to me, so I take no credit for it. I love his work as well, an amazing poet-translator. And what a kind soul. Solidarity, david
