A MUTINY OF WORDS—POETRY & FICTION READING
with MIRANDA BEESON & MATTHEW DADDONA
Saturday, April 13, 2:00pm
Registration required
Miranda Beeson will read from her collection of poems Wildlife which tracks the behavior of creatures—both homo sapiens and other species who inhabit our planet. What is our social contract with one another? With the planet we live on? Award-winning poet Julie Sheehan has called Beeson’s voice...as effortless as old money, mand as keen as a fish knife.” (Spuyten Duyvil; October 2023) Matthew Daddona will read from The Longitude of Grief, a novel about the kaleidoscopic familial bonds that entangle and entrance us all and which novelist Bethany Ball has called “beautifully crafted...with language and setting that evoke Tom Drury or Barbara Kingsolver’s Demon Copperhead.” (Wandering Aengus Press; May 2024)
