Please join us for a conversation and reading with Nathaniel Mackey, to celebrate his two new publications: Double Trio (New Directions), a box set of three interrelated books that push Mackey’s long poem vision into new territory, and Fugitive Equation (Fonograf Editions), an album of sound and word exploration performed across two nights in London by the poet and the Creaking Breeze Ensemble. Together these works cement what so many have long known: that Mackey’s improvisational blend of free jazz and poetic seeking is without peer.

At this special event, Mackey will appear in conversation with a fellow poet-explorer of the long poem, Joseph Donahue. Free to attend, registration required. We hope to “see” you there!

Books can be purchased either during the event or in advance from Magers & Quinn Booksellers in Minneapolis; just click the button below. Fun Fact: Any and all books you purchase via this link help support Rain Taxi’s virtual event series—thank you!
