Katie Farris presents 
Standing in the Forest of Being Alive
In conversation with Ilya Kaminsky

In her long awaited memoir-in-poems, prolific poet of chapbooks and co-translator of many more works, Katie Farris delivers Standing in the Forest of Being Alive. Reckoning with erotic love even as the narrator is diagnosed and treated for breast cancer at the age of thirty-six during a time of pandemic and political upheaval, this book is for anyone who's ever asked how to live in the face of suffering and doesn't expect an easy answer. Join us in Fort Greene for an evening of ethos, where Farris will be joined by award-winning poet of Deaf Republic, Ilya Kaminsky.
