@ in your ear @ DCAC
Please join us on Sunday, February 22 at 3 p.m. at the DC Arts Center (2438 18th Street in Adams Morgan, just south of Columbia Road on the west side of the street) for a poetry-o-rama with MICHAEL GOTTLIEB and JESSE SELDESS.
The author of more than a dozen titles, MICHAEL GOTTLIEB's new book, LOST AND FOUND, has just been published. His other recent books include GORGEOUS PLUNGE (Segue) CAREERING OBLOQUY (Other Publications), and MORE THAN ALL (Tongue To Boot), a collaboration with Ted Greenwald. One of the central first-generation Language poets, Gottlieb helped edit the seminal Roof Magazine through the 80s. He presently lives in Northwest Connecticut with his wife and two children. Of his new book, Ron Silliman has written, "LOST AND FOUND is a read-this-and-change-your-life experience: the first great work to emerge from the trauma of September 11. Michael Gottlieb's masterwork is one terrific book."
JESSE SELDESS lives in Chicago where he works in social services for the elderly, where he edits _Antennae_, a journal of experimental poetry, music, and performance, and where he co-curates the Discrete Reading and Performance Series. Recent poems have appeared or are soon to appear in Crayon, Conundrum, Kiosk, Traverse, Kenning, and First Intensity, and a chapbook, _Who Opens_, was just printed by Milwaukee's Bronze Skull Press.
