Reminder: Christian Bok Reading Tuesday, Oct. 26th

[The Reading Series at St. Jerome's]

Hello everyone,

Please join us for Christian Bok's reading on Tuesday (Oct. 26th) - 4:30
p.m. at Siegfried Hall.

Christian Bök is the author not only of *Crystallography,* a pataphysical
encyclopedia nominated for the Gerald Lampert Memorial Award, but also of *
Eunoia*, a bestselling work of experimental literature, which has gone on to
win the Griffin Prize for Poetic Excellence. Bök has created artificial
languages for two television shows: Gene Roddenberry’s *Earth: Final
Conflict* and Peter Benchley’s *Amazon*. Bök has also earned many accolades
for his virtuoso performances of sound poetry (particularly the Ursonate by
Kurt Schwitters). His conceptual artworks (which include books built out of
Rubik’’s cubes and Lego bricks) have appeared at the Marianne Boesky Gallery
in NY as part of the exhibit* Poetry Plastique*. The Utne Reader has
recently included Bök in its list of "50 Visionaries Who Are Changing Your
World." Bök teaches English at the University of Calgary.

We're looking forward to seeing you at the reading.

Veronica
