Join author and Milford poet laureate Joan Kwon Glass as she reads from her award-winning poetry collection NIGHT SWIM, an account of the loss of her sister and young nephew to suicide. Told through the five stages of grief, Glass explores the complexities of grief and provides readers with insight into how healing may begin. After a 15-minute reading by the author, writing prompts will be shared and there will be an opportunity to engage in Q & A and discuss the book. 

Joan Kwon Glass (B.A./M.A.T. Smith College) is the author of “Night Swim,” winner of the 2021 Diode Editions Book Contest and the micro chapbook “Bloodline,” winner of the 2021 Harbor Review Washburn Prize, and author of poetry chapbooks “How to Make Pancakes For a Dead Boy” (Harbor Editions, 2022) & “If Rust Can Grow on the Moon” (Milk & Cake Press, 2022).
