Poets at Wolfman: Garnett, Poppick, Crawford, + Ross

March 25, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm UTC+0

Callie Garnett! Daniel Poppick! Marisa Crawford! So exciting! Poets at Wolfman! Saturday night! All three poets have new books! All three are from Brooklyn! And their first names all have six letters in them! What?! It’s fate! Come down to the bookstore and say what up to your destiny! Who knows, we might even add a local poet to the mix! And stop using exclamation marks! Maybe! Eventually!

Oh wait! We did add a local poet! It’s Margaret Ross! She’s the author of A TIMESHARE, selected by Timothy Donnelly for the Omnidawn Poetry Book Prize. Her poems have appeared in Boston Review, Fence, jubilat, The New Republic and The New Yorker. She lives in Berkeley and is currently a Stegner Fellow at Stanford.

Callie Garnett is the author of the chapbook Hallelujah, I’m a Bum (Ugly Duckling Presse), a collaboration with illustrator Tallulah Pomeroy. Her work has appeared or is forthcoming in Prelude, Public Books, Jubilat, and The Literateur. She lives in Brooklyn and works as an Assistant Editor at Bloomsbury Publishing.

Daniel Poppick’s first book of poetry, The Police, is out this year from Omnidawn. His work has recently appeared in BOMB, Granta, the New Republic, Hyperallergic, and Fence. He lives in Brooklyn, where he co-edits the Catenary Press with Rob Schlegel and Rawaan Alkhatib.

Marisa Crawford is the author of the poetry collections Reversible (Switchback, forthcoming 2017) and The Haunted House (Switchback, 2010), and the chapbooks 8th Grade Hippie Chic (Immaculate Disciples, 2013) and Big Brown Bag (Gazing Grain, 2015). Her writing has appeared in Hyperallergic, Bitch, The Hairpin, and other publications, and is forthcoming in Electric Gurlesque (Saturnalia, 2016).
