Poster for 1/19 Reading and Book Party with Taije Silverman at the Kelly Writers House

Join us on Thursday, January 19, at 6:00 PM for a reading and book launch for Taije Silverman, presented by the Creative Writing Program, and with special guest Dr. Denise Brown, Associate Professor of Psychology and Human Services at Lincoln University, performing several poems on piano. Silverman will read from Now You Can Join the Others, published recently by LSU Press. Aracelis Girmay has written that "Taije Silverman’s Now You Can Join the Others is language possessed by grief and secret sight. Radiant, exact, porous. Frank and sinuous. This book is an astonishment of pages struck through with the acheful blessing of love, strange and trembling with time.”  Please register here to attend in person.

Masks are welcome. 
Please stay home if you feel ill. Books available for purchase in cash, check or PayPal.
