SUMMARY:Keith Flynn & Sebastian Matthews Virtual Event\, Dec. 5th
DESCRIPTION:https://www.citylightsnc.com/event/keith-flynn-sebastian-matthews-virtual-event \nJoin [city lights bookstore] on Saturday\, December 5th\, at 3 p.m. for a virtual event with Keith Flynn and Sebastian Matthews. The event will broadcast via Facebook Live [https://www.facebook.com/citylightsnc]  and will feature live readings of recent works by both authors. \nThe Skin of Meaning is award-winning poet Keith Flynn’s sixth and most wide-ranging collection\, seeking to find the tangible analogs and visceral meanings hidden behind the daily bombardment of digital information\, hoping to restore the mystery in our involvement with language. From the etymologies of pop culture\, history\, astronomy\, and rock and roll\, these poems fan out into a bold multiplicity of voices and techniques. Flynn’s work illustrates the meaning that is also created through tense collisions and is populated with figures in resistance to the status quo\, a gathering as varied as Caravaggio\, Nina Simone\, Gaudi\, Villon\, Wonder Woman\, and Manolete. The final section examines America’s fascination with violence and death\, revealing that “a human being in love with mystery is never finished.” This collection constantly challenges our assumptions about the world we think we see and is teeming with evidence of another invisible world bristling like an underground river beneath our feet. \nSebastian Matthews is the author of a memoir\, In My Father’s Footsteps\, and two books of poetry\, We Generous and Miracle Day. His hybrid collection of poetry and prose\, Beginner’s Guide to a Head-on Collision\, won the Independent Publishers Book Award’s silver medal. Matthews is also the author of the collage novel The Life & Times of American Crow and the memoir-in-essays Beyond Repair: Living in a Fractured State. \n  \n\n\n\n\nEvent date:\n\nSaturday\, December 5\, 2020 – 3:00pm [EST]\n\n\n\nEvent address:\n\n\n\nFacebook Live
