Event Description

Queer poets take on the end of the world. Times are hard but the poetry is good! Join us for a poetry reading celebrating the launch of the anthology Queering the Apocalypse: Poems for the end of the world. About the Anthology Queering the Apocalypse is an anthology of contemporary poetry exploring the end of days. These poems imagine and document experiences of fire, flood, and zombies. At turns funny, scathing, and forlorn, the collection includes a variety of forms and styles. Beneath it all, the beating heart of Queering the Apocalypse is queer resilience and hope for a new world. Features work from 21 different poets from across the United States.
