The Poetry Foundation will be hosting a reading in honor of Kelsey Street Press's 50th Anniversary on Thursday, October 3 at 7pm. The readers will be Kiran Bath, Jennifer (JP) Perrine, Metta Sáma and Rena Rosenwasser. It will be followed by an open bar and reception.


As the Poetry Foundation has said, "Kelsey Street Press, a small press with an explosive history of publishing radical queer and trans BIPOC and women authors, celebrates its 50th anniversary. Publishing experimental feminist poetics since 1974, Kelsey Street Press has been pivotal in addressing gender disparity in publishing."


The reading will be live streamed -- we hope you can join us in person or online!



Kiran Bath was interviewed by Poets & Writers' to celebrate the publication of Instructions for Banno. The interview provides insight into Kiran's writing process and the inspiration behind the book.


"The deeper I got into the manuscript, the more new bannos kept popping up in my dreams, in my pages, in my daytime thoughts. There were a plurality of voices speaking to me all at once, and they were, quite frankly, a very noisy bunch to live with during the latter part of the writing journey."
