We had a great time at our Ann Arbor reading to celebrate Issue 7 of the Great Lakes Review last night. Thanks to contributors Justin Longacre, Jessica Walsh, and Philip Sterling for reading – taking us all over this region from the smoky mysteries of the adult room at Major Magic’s to “rural Gothic feminist narrative poems,” and into the snowy woods where a crow’s wing resembles the ponytail of a friend killed before his time. Additional thanks to Literati Bookstore for hosting our third GLR reading – and congrats to them, on Independent Bookstore Day, for being profiled as one of the U.S.’ fifty best indie booksellers!
