MORE ABOUT THE READERS
This event will be a celebration of The Collected Poetry and Prose of Lawrence Fixel, work of the late San Francisco poet, edited and with an introduction by Gerald Fleming.

Michael Heller says. "Lawrence Fixel was one of our most beautiful and original writers.…In a world of dogmas, false certainties and oppressive realities, he was an angel of Evanescence itself, fluid, ungraspable, seeking as he wrote 'to find in that which passes, that which does not pass.'" Gerald Fleming is a poet and editor; he's published four books of poems, most recently One, edited and published the literary magazine Barnabe Mountain Review, and is currently editing the limited–edition vitreous magazine One (More) Glass.
