Bang:
Poet Mary Jo Bang, associate professor of English in Arts & Sciences, will read from her 2004 collection, The Eye Is Like a Strange Balloon, at 8 p.m. Dec. 2 for The Writing Program Reading Series.
The reading is free and open to the public and will take place in Hurst Lounge, Duncker Hall, Room 201 [Washington University in St. Louis]. A book-signing and reception will follow, and copies of Bang's works will be available for purchase.
