Join us at the Perch Pub on March 12, 2013 @ 8:00 p.m.for a reading by Kevin Varrone, Thomas Devaney, and Susan Landers. No cover. Drink and food specials. Come experience a night that’s sure to be better than the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow! (Why wait for St. Patty’s Day?)
Kevin Varrone’s most recent publications include Eephus (Little Red Leaves Textile Series, 2012), and Passyunk Lost and The Philadelphia Experiments (Ugly Duckling Presse, 2010). Boxscore: An Autobiography, a poem sequence about baseball, history, and Philadelphia, is due out as a smartphone/tablet app in April, and as literary baseball cards (Little Red Leaves Textile Series, Summer 2013).
Thomas Devaney is the author of two poetry collections, A Series of Small Boxes (Fish Drum) and The American Pragmatist Fell in Love (Banshee Press), and a nonfiction book, Letters to Ernesto Neto (Germ Folios). Devaney’s collaboration with photographer Will Brown, The Picture That Remains, is forthcoming from The Print Center of Philadelphia. He teaches at Haverford College and is the editor of ONandOnScreen, an e-journal featuring poems and videos.
Susan Landers is the author of 248 mgs, a panic picnic (O Books), Covers (O Books), 15: A Poetic Engagement with the Chicago Manual of Style (Least Weasel), and What I Was Tweeting While You Were On Facebook (forthcoming, Perfect Lovers Press). Her latest project, Franklinstein, is a mash-up of The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, Gertrude Stein’s Making of Americans, and the history of one Philadelphia neighborhood. She blogs about this project at susanlanders.tumblr.com.
