We have selected our final featured writer, so please join us in congratulating Harnidh Kaur! Harnidh’s poem, How to Drape a Sari, will be published in our June installation. We’ll make another announcement when we determine the location.

Harnidh is a 21 year old student from India. Her first book, The Inability of Words, is slated for a 2016 release.

Thank you to everyone who has shared your writing with us over the past year.

You may have noticed that we had to remove our display from Hyde Park Records – technical difficulties, as they say.

We are now happy to announce that we will be reinstalling Kelsey Hoff’s poem, Lampyridae, at 57th Street Books! We’re going to put a fresh 3 weeks on the clock for this piece, which means that our final (June) installation will be moved back to the middle of that month. (As usual, the piece will be archived on our website once it’s been taken off the display.)

We think you’ll all enjoy visiting Kelsey’s piece at 57th Street Books, which is simply an amazing destination for any lover of literature.

Thank you for your patience while the display has been down. We’re very grateful to the folks at 57th Street Books for stepping up! We will be installing Lampyridae on Monday, May 23.

You can check it out in person at:
1301 East 57th Street

Store hours are:
10:00 – 8:00 everyday.

Proudly announcing our eleventh writer: Kelsey Hoff! We’re excited to bring you her poem, Lampyridae, for the month of May. We’ll be posting the start date and location soon, so check back. Until then, you can follow Kelsey on social media (or google the word lampyridae).

Kelsey Hoff is a poet from Kenosha, WI, but Racine is where her heart is. Right now she lives in Chicago, where she is an MFA candidate at Columbia College. Her work has been published in Hobo Camp Review. Follow her on Twitter at @MidwestMadGirl.
