Call & Response

Poetry Atlanta and Georgia Center for the Book are pleased to present a special evening with award-winning poets Karen Head and Collin Kelley on Monday, January 31, 7:15 p.m. at the Decatur Library Auditorium, 215 Sycamore St. This event is free!

The reading, Call & Response, will feature Head and Kelley reading their poetry round-robin style selecting poems on the fly to find common themes, moods and imagery. It’s a fun, experimental and unexpected evening of poetry because the audience -- and the poets -- aren’t sure what’s coming next.

Karen Head is the author of Sassing (WordTech), My Paris Year and Shadow Boxes (both from All Nations Press). Her poetry has appeared in journals and anthologies around the world.

Collin Kelley is the author of Better To Travel, After the Poison and Slow To Burn, which is being re-issued by Seven Kitchens Press in July 2011. His debut novel, Conquering Venus, is out now.
