Dislocate/MFA Reading with Todd Boss!

Mid November—it’s getting colder, the sun's down before you leave work, and if you’re like me, you’re starting to feel some seasonal affective disorder about now. You know what’s good for seasonal affective disorder? Poetry. Really, really good poetry.

As luck would have it, there's an opportunity for you to come hear some great poetry, and some great prose too. Todd Boss, awarding winning poet and Minnesota native, will be reading work to hold your early winter blues at bay. Todd is the author of On Marriage (Red Dragonfly Press) and yellowrocket (W.W. Norton and Co.) He’ll be reading his poetry alongside MFA candidates Luke Pingel (poetry), Libby Edelson (fiction), Cory Newbiggen (nonfiction).

It’s all happening this Tuesday, November 18th, in 150 Lind Hall on the University of Minnesota campus (east bank). The reading starts at 7pm, but come early to snack, chat, and buy copies of Dislocate #4, our latest issue featuring the art of Brian Ness. Hope we’ll see you there.
