Events

The delicate, undaunted, disconcerting power of Forrest Gander’s work springs from the view that dimensions of experience, too often neatly segregated, intersect. He will read from Mojave Ghost, which a subtle subtitle designates A Novel Poem and which unfolds from desert walks during which he discovers the reticulations of past and present, actual and recalled, physical and spiritual—xeric and eldritch. The cover’s simple image shows a great saguaro cactus casting the shadow of a human.

Organized and hosted by poet, literary critic, and UCLA Distinguished Research Professor Stephen Yenser. Cosponsored by UCLA Department of English and UCLA Recreation.
