Iconic poet Eileen Myles will be joined by Choire Sicha, co-founder of The Awl and author of Very Recent History, for a celebration of Myles’s forthcoming collection of new and selected poems, I Must Be Living Twice. In this gorgeous and comprehensive compilation “Myles' off-the-cuff delivery recalls the work of Frank O'Hara — if he'd been writing in the past few decades, and if he'd loved pop culture as much as high culture” (NPR).

Eileen Myles has published twenty books of poetry, art journalism, and fiction and libretti. She's a Guggenheim Fellow, has received the Shelley Prize from the Poetry Society of America and a Lambda Award for lesbian fiction, and was named to the Whiting/Slate Second Novel List. She also received an arts writers grant from Creative Capital/ the Warhol Foundation and a Foundation for Contemporary Arts grant. She lives in Marfa, Texas, and New York.
