Description and Reader Names: In this reading, Lori and Angele will alternate voices by "calling and responding" to each other's work, and will debut some new poems!

LORI WILSON’S poetry collection House Where a Woman (Autumn House, 2009) "will haunt you, hunt you down in the middle of the night," says Jan Beatty. Her poems and reviews have appeared in Women’s Review of Books, Southern Poetry Review, Kestrel, Georgetown Review, 5 AM and elsewhere. She lives and works as a computer systems analyst in Morgantown, West Virginia, and is a student in the MFA Program in Poetry and Poetry in Translation at Drew University.

ANGELE ELLIS’S new chapbook, Spared—a Main Street Rag Editors Choice Selection—"moulds memory into tenderness and loss," says Fady Joudah. The author of Arab on Radar (Six Gallery), Angele is a 2008 recipient of a PA Council on the Arts poetry fellowship, whose work has appeared in Grey Sparrow, Mizna, THEMA, Grasslimb and elsewhere, including the anthologies Come Together: Imagine Peace (Bottom Dog) and Natural Language (Carnegie Library). She lives and works in Pittsburgh.
