Reading Local Seattle

{ Floating Bridge at Jack Straw Productions }

Okay Lydia Davis is reading tomorrow. She should be seen  I guess. But if her truncated, cool stories or the Arts and Lectures prices aren’t your thing, you should visit the new lit and media hub of Seattle in the University District at Jack Straw Productions. In the last year Jack Straw has begun to rent and shelter even smaller arts organizations from around town including The Raven Chronicles, Floating Bridge, and now the 911 Media Arts Center. Tomorrow Floating Bridge hosts a reading fromwith contributors from Floating Bridge Review 2. Amy Shrader reviewed the recent anthology which contained work from the Floating Bridge/SubText collaboration. She said, “These risky, self-aware, spiky poems mark a decidedly different direction for this publication. I was pleased to see some of my favorite local writers who, due to their radically different aesthetics, would probably never have appeared in the original Pontoon.”
