Transvengence Vol.14: Book Launch for "Goodbye to a Dream Believed" by Joss Barton
About the event
Organized by: Guild Literary Complex — https://www.eventbrite.com/o/20231633979
Transvengence brings together poetry, queer expression, and community for an evening celebrating Joss Barton’s debut book launch.
Saturday, November 21st / 6:30 @ Haymarket House
Transvengence Vol. 14 features the book launch of Goodbye to a Dream Believed by Joss Barton.
Joss Barton will perform readings from the book, followed by an author Q&A, a book signing, and refreshments.
Goodbye to a Dream Believed!, Joss Barton’s debut collection, is a clutch of transsexual acid dreams and tweaker rave poems. Bound together in her singular style of nightclub stream of consciousness and righteous queer rage, these poems demand another bump, another battle, and another belief system. This book asks us to ponder what lies beyond the revelatory seconds of a poem’s ego death and who will be there holding you when the party ends and the sun begins to rise.
