Warren Lehrer: New Books + Collaborations

Warren Lehrer: New Books + Collaborations

Join us Wednesday, October 9 at Pratt Institute Library's Alumni Reading Room for a multimedia performance/reading/talk featuring new and recent books by writer/designer/visual literature pioneer Warren Lehrer and collaborators, including poet/Pratt professor Adeena Karasick, actor/author Judith Sloan, and a special appearance by actor Monna Sabouri.

The books include: Jericho’s Daughter, Lehrer’s anti-war, feminist reimagining of the biblical tale of Rahab, with images by painter Sharon Horvath; Riveted in the Word, an electronic book depicting a writer’s hard-fought battle to regain language after a massive stroke; and Ouvert Oeuvre: Openings, an ecstatically wrought exploration of re-entering the world after a worldwide pandemic, written by Karasick, visualized by Lehrer.

Presention followed by Q&A, book signing, and reception.

Free admission and refreshments!
