2001 AATSEEL Special Poetry Events

[Olga Livshin]

Dear SEELANGers,
    You are cordially invited to the 2011 AATSEEL events dedicated to contemporary Russian poetry. This year, we have a wonderful mix of authors from the Russian Federation and the United States, including Alexei Tsvetkov, winner of the Andrey Bely Prize and AATSEEL Featured Poet, and Psoy Korolenko, one of Russia's most famous postmodern singer-songwriters. The panels are thematic. Readings by the poets are followed by comments by a discussant and discussion with the audience. The full roster of events is below.
    Many warm thanks to our supporters this year--we will be able to have a great series of events, thanks to their efforts. A special thank-you to Stephanie Sandler for fund-raising  for the AATSEEL Poetry Fund.
    All the best,
