Around all the Worlds in an Hour: Kazim Ali and Srikanth Reddy September 14, 2011

Reading KAZIM ALI, LESLIE C. CHANG and SRIKANTH REDDY in concert is like discovering a door in the floor that leads to the ceiling, like pulling apart one universe to discover another seven tented over it.

On Wednesday, September 14, join some of the Workshop's favorite poets to hear their diametrically opposite journeys into the same questions. KAZIM ALI’s Fasting for Ramadan: Notes from a Spiritual Practice is really two books in one: the first a blog from a recent fasting cycle, the second a private fasting journal written a few years prior. LESLIE C. CHANG's Things That No Longer Delight Me is an almost cinematic collection of poems exploring family and memory through aid of objects. SRIKANTH REDDY’s Voyager borrows text from Secretary General of the UN and former Nazi SS officer Kurt Waldheim's controversial memoir, appropriating and returning the original text in three sections. Come out to hear this rare reading between poets of such caliber.
