Join us for the launch of Dear Enheduanna by poet Erin Honeycutt, published by Ugly Duckling press 2025. Part prayer, part performance, part poetic treatise, Dear Enheduanna "is an erotic romp through language and lesbian history." (LA Warman) On the occasion of the launch we are joined by Erin Honeycutt, neneh noï and Chloe Chignell. After the reading they will talk about the inversions and perversions of moving between reader-author, writer-publisher, translation-invocation and anarchist publishing practices. 

We are delighted to welcome you for a reading by poet, writer and translator Cecilia Pavón. A cofounder of Buenos Aires’s independent art space and publishing press Belleza y Felicidad—where a whole generation of soon-to-be-famous Argentine artists showed their work for the first time—Pavón pioneered the use of “unpoetic” and intimate content—her verses often lifted from text messages or chat rooms, her tone often impish, yet brutally sincere. The reading will move from her nineties gaze up to her most recent work. It will be followed by a conversation with poet and programmer Jimena Casas.

Join us for a writing workshop by Claire Star Finch. Following in the footsteps of poets who use constraints to generate unexpected and powerful works we will explore Easy-to-Read’s Language’s constraints to experiment with a language of radical simplicity, full of rhythms and sounds. We will cut, move, and rearrange words to create texts that are both accessible and unique.

Join us for a reading and conversation with Claire Star Finch to celebrate the publication of their first novel Fuck Me Judith. A groundbreaking, anachronistic experiment in literature informed by the counter traditions of New Narrative and queer writing. Claire Star will share excerpts from the novel and then be joined in conversation by Chloe Chignell.
