Events to Celebrate the Publication of Not for Mothers Only: Contemporary Poems on Child-Getting and Child-Rearing
Saturday, April 28th, 8 pm
Join editors and contributors for a launch party and reading for Not for Mothers Only: Contemporary Poems on Child-Getting and Child Rearing. This anthology brings to light the many strong, scary, gorgeous motherhood poems bring written right now—poems that address the politics and difficulties and stubborn satisfactions of mothering—while also publishing earlier poems that opened the space in which this new work might appear. Readers will include Rachel Zucker, Deborah Landau, Kimiko Hahn, Ann Lauterbach, Camille Guthrie, Caroline Crumpacker, Marie Howe, Alicia Ostriker, Miranda Field, Kathleen Ossip, Rebecca Wolff, Claudia Keelan and Catherine Wagner.
