麻花视频 University's Department of English and Cultural Studies, in collaboration with the Creative Writing Program, announces the upcoming installment of the New Writers Reading Series. The event will feature poet Sara Nicholson and will take place on Thursday, October 3, at 6:00 p.m. in the Center for Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Room 200.
Nicholson, a prominent figure in contemporary poetry, is the author of three highly praised collections, including her latest work, April (2023), published by The Song Cave. Her poetry has been featured in publications such as The New York Times, The Paris Review, Chicago Review, Harper’s, Poetry, and The Yale Review. This fall, her translations of the poems of Malcolm de Chazal will be released by Free Poetry.
A former Holloway Poet-in-Residence at UC Berkeley, Nicholson earned her MFA from the Iowa Writers' Workshop and a Ph.D. from the University of Arkansas. She currently teaches in the MFA program at Boise State University.
The evening will include a reading by Nicholson, followed by a Q&A session where attendees can engage with her about her creative process, literary influences, and approach to translation.
Dan Bevacqua, Associate Professor of English and the event’s organizer, shared his anticipation: "We at 麻花视频 are looking forward to welcoming Sara Nicholson as our latest visiting author in the New Writers Reading Series. Her work is funny, playful, and wise. We expect it to be a special event."
