Tonight at 7: Justin Taylor, Jeremy Schmall, and Eileen Myles! Poetry! Prose! Wine! Beer!
Jeremy Schmall is the founding editor of the Agriculture Reader, a limited-edition arts annual published out of the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Justin Taylor’s debut novel, “The Gospel of Anarchy,” is set in Florida in the summer of 1999 and involves a hedonistic cult attempting to unite the rival utopian traditions of Anarchism and Christianity. Eileen Myles came to New York in 1974 to be a poet. Inferno (a poet’s novel) chronicles the adventures of a female writer in hell very much like Eileen Myles. The writers will read both poetry and prose, say nice things about each other, and take questions from the audience.
This is a good line up.
