Poets Bruce Andrews, Rob Fitterman and Kim Rosenfield
will be featured @Goliath in an evening of readings from their works and more.


Bruce Andrews is "a performance artist and poet whose texts are some of the most radical of the Language school; his poetry tries to cast doubt on each and every 'natural' construction of language" (The Oxford Companion to Twentieth Century Literature in English). Andrews is a founding editor of the legendary journal L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E, which in many ways catalyzed the new experimental poetry movement that emerged in the 70s and 80s. His many books include Sugar Raised (forthcoming), Lip Service, Give 'Em Enough Rope, Designated Heartbeat, Ex Why Zee, Tizzy Boost, and I Don't Have Any Paper So Shut Up (or, Social Romanticism). He has performed his poetry throughout the United States, often in collaboration with dancer Sally Silvers. Andrews is currently Associate Professor of Political Science at Fordham University in New York.

Metropolis 16-29 was published by Coach House Books (Toronto 2002) and his latest
collection Metropolis 30: The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is forthcoming
