The sensational <a href="http://www.poets.org/poetsorg/poet/caconrad" target="_blank">CAConrad</a> will
be joining us this coming Monday, September 22, at 7:00pm in Linsly-Chittenden Hall, Room 319 (63 High St., New Haven), reading with the English department's very own Stephen Krewson. It promises to be an evening of spellbinding verse and rabble-rousing calls
to fabulously transgressive action, as we enjoy the work of a poet whom Eileen Myles hails as the Blake of the 21st century!</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
