SUMMARY:Poetry Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Poetry Book Club! This month we will discuss B/RDS 
 by Beatrice Szymkowiak.\n\nCopies of this title will be available to 
 pick-up at the Downtown Library's Information Desk beginning on June 
 4th.\n\nWe will meet in the Conference Room from 5:30-7:00PM on Thursday\, 
 August 6th. The first hour will be dedicated to discussion with the last 30 
 minutes reserved for writing exercises (optional).\n\nAbout this 
 Book:\n\nB/RDS endeavors to dismantle discourses that create an artificial 
 distinction between nature and humanity through a subversive erasure of an 
 iconic work of natural history: John James Audubon’s Birds of America 
 (1827-1838). This process of erasure considers the text of Birds of America 
 as an archival cage. The author selectively erases words from the textual 
 cage to reveal its ambiguity and the complex relationship between humanity 
 and the other-than-human world. As the cage disappears\, leaving a space 
 for scarce\, lyrical poems\, birds break free\, their voices inextricably 
 entangled with ours.\n\n(source: uofupress.com/books/b-rds/)
