Sinéad O'connor - I am Stretched on your Grave

East Bay book release reading

I'm reading at La Commune next Saturday, March 14th for Steve Orth's Hybrid Moments series, really excited to be reading with Jane Gregory, 2PM start time, would be great to see you, whoever you are. 

"Hello and get ready cause Hybrid Moments is back with a vengeance. Please join us at La Commune Cafe and Bookstore inside of the Omni Oakland Commons on March 14th as John Sakkis and Jane Gregory kill you with poetry. This reading (I think) is the EAST BAY book release of John's newest book THE ISLANDS out now from Nightboat Books. If you miss this reading you need to remove your head from your bottom. Remember Hybrid Moments always starts at 2pm!!!

JANE GREGORY is from Tucson & lives in Berkeley. Her first book, My Enemies, was published by the Song Cave. New work is or will soon be in Critical Quarterly, Elderly & The American Reader.

JOHN SAKKIS is the author of The Islands (Nightboat Books, 2015) and Rude Girl (BlazeVOX Books 2009), as well as numerous chapbooks and ephemera. Since 2005 he has edited BOTH BOTH, a little magazine of poetry and art. With Angelos Sakkis he has translated four books by Athenian poet Demosthenes Agrafiotis: most recently Y'es and Diaeresis (forthcoming 2015 from Dusie Press);' their translation of Agrafiotis's Maribor (The Post-Apollo Press, 2011), was awarded the 2011 Northern California Book Award for Poetry in Translation. He lives in Oakland."
