Join Los Angeles Review of Books for A Very Public Feeling, a literary party during AWP, the biggest writer’s conference of the year. On Thursday, March 27, at 7 p.m., we invite you to join us to celebrate two of the things we love most: writing and feeling. Whether it’s crying on a park bench, taking your shoes off at TSA, or reading your poetry in front of strangers, A Very Public Feeling is the sense that being perceived is all a part of the collective soup of human experience.

Hear from LARB contributors and enjoy a drink at the Granada Buildings, a historic epicenter of creativity and the arts, and the home of LARB here in Los Angeles. With readings from LARB contributors Bryan Byrdlong, Victoria Chang, Tongo Eisen-Martin, K. Iver, Lauren Markham, Chris Molnar, Maya Popa, and Greta Rainbow.

This event is free and open to the public. RSVP is encouraged as space is limited. Street parking is available. The event is located about 10 minutes from the Los Angeles Convention Center.
