Posted by Wyatt Williams @wyatt_williams on Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 1:00 PM
The latest installment of the Solar Anus reading series goes down at Kavarna tonight. New York native David Lehman will be reading poetry and Georgia-based Josh Russell will read short fiction.
The prolific David Lehman has two books out this year - a collection of poetry titled Yeshiva Boys and a non-fiction volume about Jewish songwriters titled A Fine Romance - as well as the latest installment of The Best American Poetry series, which he initiated and continues to edit. You can check him out reading a poem called "The Double Agent" below.
Josh Russell is the author of Yellow Jack and two forthcoming novels - My Bright Midnight and A True History of the Captivation, Transport to Strange Lands, & Deliverance of Hannah Guttentag. He was raised in Normal, Illinois and lives in Newnan, Ga.
Solar Anus is, hands down, the best name for a reading series in Atlanta. Local author Jamie Iredell hosts the roving series, which will conclude 2009 with a reading at Beep Beep Gallery this Friday, November 20 featuring Kate Greenstreet, Brigitte Byrd, and Scott Wilkerson.
