"Cross James Joyce and Jack Nicholson in a high energy construct machine and you have Michael Gizzi's poems." --Lisa Jarnot

"Razor sharp but also rich and generously compelling, Michael Gizzi's poetry lambastes as it celebrates." --John Ashbery

Unfortunately, Anselm Berrigan will not be reading due to illness.
