Last Night at Lake Forest College…

April 4, 2014 by KR

…I got to read in their Reading Series and Student Open Mic, and I got to be introduced by the illustrious professor and Curbside Splendor publisher  Jacob S. Knabb and his illustrious baby, Iggy, pictured here…007…and pictured here in this shot of the audience with Kelly, Iggy’s illustrious  mom…

009

The featured student reader was Davinia Dawes…005

…and the featured faculty reader was Joshua Corey, doing the first ever reading from his forthcoming novel Beautiful Soul: An American Elegy: 006

I read a little bit from my novel, O, Democracy!, and from Robinson Alone (hence the ‘stache) and from the chapbook The Kind of Beauty That Has Nowhere to Go: 015

Thanks to Jacob for inviting me and to him and Kelly and Iggy for being the hosts with the most.
