About this Event
Chris Martin will read from May Tomorrow Be Awake: On Poetry, Autism, and Our Neurodiverse Future, his new work, Field Guide to a Tilted Mind, and work from some of the authors in the Multiverse imprint, a series of neurodivergent writing, which he curates for Milkweed Editions.

A reception will follow with light refreshments provided.
About the Author:
Chris Martin is a tilted thinking animal who sways, lights, trees, listens, and arrives. A poet who teaches and learns in mutual measure, he is the connective hub of Unrestricted Interest and the curator of Multiverse, a series of neurodivergent writing from Milkweed Editions. After publishing four collections of poetry, including Things to Do in Hell (Coffee House Press, 2020), he released his first book of nonfiction May Tomorrow Be Awake: On Poetry, Autism, and Our Neurodiverse Future (HarperOne, 2022). He lives in El Cerrito, among the scrub jays and coast live oaks, with Mary Austin Speaker and their two bewildering creatures.
