Belladonna* Book Launch: 20 Years of Feminist Poetry with Carla Harryman, Mia You, and Lila Zemborain
Salma Shamel and Ciarán Finlayson quote Marx or Adorno without qualm or academic pretense, drawing on intellectual legacies to incise a present in desperate need of reanimation. Their writing, manifestos and essays alike, cuts through cultural noise with keen analysis and radical assertion. For them, the essay is not only a tool of critique but a space—expansive, deep, generous—where narrative and critique are never at odds and can emerge in new, singular forms.
With a guest introduction by Jack Gross.
This event will also be livestreamed for free on The Poetry Project's YouTube channel.
