Poet and Executive Director of Casa Libre en la Solana Kristen Nelson leads a Shop Talk on the poetry of Khadijah Queen, who reads for the Poetry Center in Tucson on February 18.

Shop Talks take a “round table” approach to scholarly investigation of poetic works. Each Shop Talk begins with a mini-lecture on the featured author, followed by a conversation about the author and the work. No advance knowledge of the poet or works discussed is required. For more information, email Wendy Burk at wlburk@email.arizona.edu.
