SUMMARY:Poets Jane Gregory & Claire Marie Stancek Reading from their recent respective volumes Yeah No and Oil Spell\, and introduced by Lyn Hejinian.
DESCRIPTION:Jane Gregory’s mystifying second collection begins with a “Knock knock\,” inviting the reader into a realm where “Everything is a pattern / of yesses and no.” Within these pages we find Gregory constructing a multivalent world—ripe with struggle\, prophecy\, and\, by the end\, a resemblance of hope. Using her highly-tuned sensibility throughout\, Gregory guides us through the anxieties of this journey by inventing new and enigmatic forms filled with sonic experimentation and polyphony.\n\n\nJane Gregory is from Tucson and lives in Oakland. Her first book\, My Enemies\, was published in 2013. She is co-founder and co-editor\, with Lyn Hejinian and Claire Marie Stancek\, of Nion Editions\, a chapbook press. She recently completed her PhD in English at UC Berkeley. \nClaire Marie Stancek’s Oil Spell gathers many of today’s dark energies—US drone strikes\, environmental disaster—and asks: what kind of tool is poetry to mirror these violences? The poems here are counter-conjurations\, but they also query whether poetry itself might be a violent entrance of language into the world. Oil Spell animates diverse influences—Dorothy Wordsworth’s journals\, environmental reports of extinction and endangerment\, and the Pakistani government assessments of drone strikes. The poems do not attempt to negotiate or domesticate this diversity\, but ask what function poetry might have alongside these various performative linguistic functions. While poetry appears to have a dark function in these connections\, Oil Spell also asks whether we might invest language with the capacity to conjure towards other possibilities. Oil Spell performs the ways in which narratives of loss and narratives of everyday joy curl into one another and mutually contaminate. The beauty that results is a troubled reflection\, like a rainbow in a slick of oil. \nClaire Marie Stancek is also the author of Mouths. With Lyn Hejinian and Jane Gregory\, she edits Nion Editions\, a chapbook press. She has recently completed a PhD in English at UC Berkeley\, where she teaches classes on literature and creative writing. Originally from outside Toronto\, Ontario\, she now lives in Berkeley. \nPoet\, essayist\, translator\, and publisher Lyn Hejinian teaches at UC Berkeley.

SUMMARY:For Young Adults 12 & up! James Parks reads from Rickety Stitch and the Gelatinous Goo Book 2: The Middle-Route Run
DESCRIPTION:Nimona meets Adventure Time in this full-color graphic novel as a singing skeleton continues to search for his origins alongside his gelatin monster sidekick! \n\n\n\n\n\nSunday\, July 29\, 2018 – 3:00pm\n\n\n\n\n\nRickety Stitch is a walking\, talking\, singing skeleton minstrel\, the only animated skeleton in the dungeon who seems to have retained his soul. He has no idea who he used to be when he was covered in a living\, breathing sack of meat and skin. His only clue to his former identity is a song he hears snippets of in his dreams\, an epic bard’s tale that could also explain the old fog covering the comical fantasy land of Eem…Oh\, and his sidekick and only friend is a cube of sentient goo. \nIn this pulse-pounding second volume\, Rickety runs afoul of reanimated beasts\, giant spiders\, and a caravan of rowdy raiders on his quest to uncover the secret of Epoli and learn his true origins. \nJames Parks is a speculative fiction writer and graphic novelist living in the Bay Area. He was weaned on monster flicks\, ghostbusting\, lightsaber duels\, samurai cinema\, and comics–with a sober dose of Victorian literature and ’80s cartoons. Parks is also the author of the southern gothic horror collection The Gospel of Bucky Dennis\, was a staff writer for Campfire Graphic Novels\, and is a member of the Horror Writers Association.
