Third Thursdays Poetry: March


Daisy Atterbury is a poet, essayist and scholar. The Kármán Line (2024), a St. Lawrence Book Award Finalist and debut book of experimental prose and poetry, was published by Rescue Press in October, 2024. Described as "a new cosmology" (Lucy Lippard) and "a cerebral altar to the desert" (Raquel Gutiérrez), The Kármán Line investigates queer life and fantasies of space and place with an interest in unraveling colonial narratives in the American Southwest. Atterbury is the Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of American Studies and teaches full-time in American Studies and Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies at the University of New Mexico.

Sara Deniz Akant is a poet, educator, and performer. She is the author of three books — most recently, Hyperphantasia (Rescue Press 2022), which was a New York Times book of the year, a Boston Globe book of the year, and won the Massachusetts Book Award in poetry. She is also the author of Babette (Rescue Press 2015), winner of the Black Box Poetry Prize, and Parades (Omnidawn 2014), winner of the Chapbook Prize. She teaches poetry as a Professor of the Practice at Tufts University, where she also directs the Creative Writing program, and she co-curates the Kan Yama Kan reading series in Brooklyn. @kan.yama.kan.bk
