Kentucky Great Writers 2016 04 12: Rebecca Gayle Howell, Kiki Petrosino, Nickole Brown - Бесплатная аудиокнига

The Kentucky Great Writers Series connects authors to readers and writers in an intimate atmosphere.

Rebecca Gayle Howell‘s Render / An Apocalypse selected for the Cleveland State University Poetry Center First Book Poetry Prize in 2012. According to Marie Howe, “This is the book you want with you in the cellar when the tornado is upstairs taking your house and your farm.” Event organizer Jennifer Mattox also says that Howell will be reading poems that she hasn’t read yet in Kentucky.

png)Nickole Brown‘s Fanny Says received some hearty praise from one of the other speakers, Rebecca Gayle Howell: “In Fanny Says, Nickole Brown distills the whole of America into one woman: bawdy, loving, racist, battered, healed, and gorgeous with determination.” (source)
