It's National Poetry Month! To celebrate, join us for a free poetry reading from "Queer Nature" on April 22 from 3 - 5pm at Quatrefoil Library!

“Queer Nature” is an anthology that amplifies and centers LGBTQIA+ voices and perspectives in a collection of contemporary nature poetry. Showcasing over two hundred queer writers from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century, Queer Nature offers a new context for and expands upon the canon of nature poetry while also offering new lenses through which to view queerness and the natural world. The anthology is a finalist for the 2023 Lambda Literary Award Finalist in LGBTQ+ Anthology

Editor Michael Walsh of the anthology will moderate the reading. Poets from the anthology James Cihlar, KateLynn Hibbard, Su Smallen Love, Rachel Moritz, Juliette Patterson, William Reichard and Morgan Grayce Willow will share their work.

A reception with light refreshments will follow the conversation along with the sale of this book and a book signing.
