About this Event
Eileen Myles is a poet, novelist and art journalist whose practice of vernacular, first-person writing has made them one of the most recognized writers of their generation. Pathetic Literature, which they edited, came out in fall 2022. A Working Life, their newest collection of poems, is out now. Their fiction includes the groundbreaking novels Chelsea Girls (1994), Cool for You (2000), Inferno (a poet’s novel) (2010), and Afterglow (2017), and their writing on art has been collected in The Importance of Being Iceland: Travel Essays in Art (2009).
They will be reading selections from their work and the work of James Schuyler, and discussing the relationship between poets and painters in the context of the exhibition .
