K Iver Poetry Reading followed by conversation with Joan Kwon Glass

K. Iver (they/them) is a nonbinary trans poet from Mississippi. The prayer-like poems in their acclaimed collection—Short Film Starring My Beloved’s Red Bronco—interrogate memory and the devastation of grief while grappling toward the possibility of solace. Their debut book won the Wisconsin Book Award, and was named a Best Book of 2023 by the New York Public Library. Iver will be joined in conversation by Joan Kwon Glass following the reading. Books will be sold at the event and a signing will follow. Free and open to all! Livestream also available on the Boutelle-Day Poetry Center’s YouTube channel.
