FELIX features local poets

Gabriel Miller

The first fall event in the FELIX series will feature readings by three poets: Bob Harrison, co-editor of the Milwaukee/New York journal "Crayon," William Allegrezza, editor of the online journal "Moria," and Steve Timm, an English as a second language instructor.

The reading, sponsored by the Friends of the UW-Madison Libraries, will be held Tuesday, Sept. 21, at 4:30 p.m. in 126 Memorial Library. The talk is the fourth in a larger series titled "FELIX: A Series of New Writing," sponsored by the Friends of the UW-Madison Libraries.

Named after Felix Pollak (1909—1987), poet and former curator of Special Collections, this developing reading series invites original, young writers in the area to provide a forum for conversation on the evolution of "little magazines" and their role in literary culture.
