2013-03-15 00:36:41| Powells Books Events Calendar
University of Hell Press founder Greg Gerding shares stories about the press, and four of UHell's authors read selections from their books. The I in Team is Eirean Bradley's first, long-overdue book. Bradley's poetry is brilliant, bawdy, bold, and biting, and also accurate about the state of man and the human condition. Stephen M. Park's High and Dry is a memoir of misadventure akin to a Hunter S. Thompson fever dream. Under the pseudonym Wilson High, Park narrates and illustrates exploits of his life that unfold like an experiment gone awry, including life-threatening illnesses, addictions, gunfire, mental wards, wino hotels, apprehension by the FBI, a Tijuana divorce, and years of marijuana cultivation. Through Poetic Scientifica, Leah Noble Davidson forges poetry from the physics of humanity and proves that nothing is more colorful than the chemistry of us. Davidson's written aesthetic guides us through chaos to a state of equilibrium and reminds us that we are all just looking to matter. Brian S. Ellis's American Dust Revisited was 9,000 miles in the making. Ellis traveled to and through nearly every physical and mental state in America, breathing in the dusty experience and coughing up his unique perspective. Ellis is a lyrical and authentic storyteller.
