Elizabeth Zuba will read from her new poetry collection, Where Is Everyone!, and Farnoosh Fathi will read from her poetry collection Granny Cloud. Described as "an urgent cry of revolutionary spirit, but...also a cry bedecked with extinction and nearly possessed by wonder," Where Is Everyone! is praised by Farnoosh Fathi as: "poems [that] not only proclaim and prove this augury, but they help us to feel how the work of one poem is part of an already immanently collective activity, created by the 'autonaut[s] of every species and cosmic order.' That she can translate scientific perception into poetic companionship so breathlessly, with such a frank ecstasy and generous humility, gives me the inspiration and loving intensity I need to get with and what and where everyone really is." Meanwhile, Fathi's Granny Cloud is described by Janani Ambikapathy of the Poetry Foundation as "electrifying syntax" and praises the collection as "driven by a kind of entrancement: Fathi is so acutely attuned to everything she encounters—things and animals as much as abstract nouns, and particles of language—that she dresses each thing in a surfeit of attention."
