Last year, we published a short story by Helen McClory titled “Pink Glitter.” We’ve been fans of her work ever since, and we’re eagerly anticipating her collection On the Edges of Vision (and her follow-up, due out from Civil Coping Mechanisms next year.) We’re pleased to announce that we’ll be hosting Helen, along with Susan Rukeyser, author of Not On Fire, Only Dying (which has a glowing blurb from James Ellroy, among others) at WORD on Thursday, September 3rd, at 7:00 pm. (Also reading: Vol.1’s Tobias Carroll.)

This event will take place at WORD Brooklyn (126 Franklin Street, Brooklyn, NY).

You can Facebook RSVP here.
