Dear Friends,

We hope you can join us this Saturday, November 3 at 7pm for a reading by poets Genevieve Kaplan and Joseph Harrington at Agitprop. Before and after the reading, you can check out some of the events hosted that same day by the There Goes the Neighborhood collaborative in conjunction with the Living As Form (Nomadic Version) exhibit at the UCSD University Art Gallery. For a full list of events see the Facebook event page: "What's the Use?"




Genevieve Kaplan received her MFA from the University of Iowa and is completing her PhD in Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Southern California. Her first book, In the ice house, won the 2009 A Room of Her Own Foundation's To the Lighthouse poetry prize and was published by Red Hen Press in Fall 2011. With her husband, she edits the Toad Press international chapbook series, which publishes contemporary literary translations. She also co-founded Gold Line Press, which specializes in perfect-bound chapbooks of poetry and prose.


Joseph Harrington is the author of Things Come On: an amneoir (Wesleyan Univ. Press 2011), a mixed-genre work relating the twinned narratives of the Watergate scandal and his mother's cancer; it was a Rumpus magazine Poetry Book Club selection. He is also the author of the chapbook Earth Day Suite (Beard of Bees 2010) and the critical work Poetry and the Public (Wesleyan 2002). His creative work also has appeared in Hotel Amerika, No Tell Motel, 1913, BathHouse, Otoliths, Fact-Simile, and Tarpaulin Sky, among others. He is a Professor of English at the University of Kansas in Lawrence.

There is no cover charge for reading, but libations and donations to the gallery are always welcome. We hope to see you there and for festivities before and after.
