Welcome to an evening of poetry and conversation with Elizabeth Clark Wessel and Alina Gregorian

Welcome to an evening of poetry with Elizabeth Clark Wessel, author of "None of It Belongs to Me", and Alina Gregorian.

When: 14 November, 18.00-19.00

Where: Prismatic Pages, Rathkes gate 7b

Elizabeth Clark Wessel’s debut full-length collection gathers poems that track the cadences of daily thought as they happen. In this book, Clark Wessel unspools layers of mythology—of places, people, historical and ahistorical time—and finds their entanglements with everyday life, revealing marvelous influences encoded in the ordinary.

This event is free, but please register to reserve a spot!
