Programmed by Raina J. Léon

The first in this series of readings celebrating the tenth anniversary of the influential journal The Acentos Review starts us off with a bang. Alan Chazaro’s chapbook Piñata Theory won the 2018 Hudson Prize. A Marshall scholar currently studying at Oxford, Antonio López has had work featured in PEN/America and elsewhere. The widely published Leticia Hernández-Linares is a lecturer at San Francisco State University and the author of Mucha Muchacha, Too Much Girl. Acoustic indie folk-pop trio Gala join the poets in performance.
