--G.K. Chesterton
"The man's body is sacred and the woman's body is sacred.../Each belongs here or anywhere just as much as the well-off, just as much as you."
--Walt Whitman

I'll be reading my poetry at Housing Works Used Books Cafe in Manhattan on Jan. 18 along with John Yau and Sara Femenella, in an event sponsored by the Saint Ann's Review. Housing Works is located at 126 Crosby Street. The show begins at 7 PM. Find out more here.
John Yau is a leading art critic, poet, essayist, and prose writer whose books include The United States of Jasper Johns (1996), Borrowed Love Poems (2002), and Ing Grish (2006). He has received awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Academy of American Poets and the Guggenheim Foundation. Sara Femenella is currently an MFA candidate in Poetry at Columbia University. I'm very excited to be reading with these talented writers, and hope to see lots of poetry fans there. Spread the word!
