AN EXPLORATION OF GRIEF AND ECOLOGY WITH KATHRYN SAVAGE

  • Magic City Books 221 East Archer Street Tulsa, OK, 74103 United States (map)

Magic City Books is proud to welcome Tulsa Artist Fellow Kathryn Savage for an in person event celebrating her debut exploration of grief and ecology, Groundglass, on Monday November 7 at 7:00 pm in the Algonquin Room at Magic City Books. Joining Kathryn in conversation will be fellow Tulsa Artist Fellow, Jennifer Croft.

In Groundgalss, Savage explores the porous boundary between self and environment, and the ambiguous yet growing body of evidence linking toxins to disease. Equal parts mourning poem and manifesto for environmental justice, Groundglass reminds us that no living thing exists on its own.

Groundglass is available now at Magic City Books.

Kathryn Savage's writing has appeared in American Short Fiction, Ecotone Magazine, the Virginia Quarterly Review, BOMB, and the anthology Rewilding: Poems for the Environment. Recipient of the Academy of American Poets James Wright Prize, she has received support from fellowships and residencies including the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference, Minnesota State Arts Board, Ucross Foundation, and Tulsa Artist Fellowship. She lives with her family in Minneapolis and teaches creative writing at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design.
