Even amidst the fires, the pandemic, the looming anxiety coursing through all of us as the election tip toes towards us, there is good to be had. Maw Shein Win releasing her new book of poetry - Storage Unit for the Spirit House (University of Chicago Press/Omnidawn) - is one of those good things. Another? Maw Shein Win doing us the great solid of gracing us with a pre-publication event for her new book in which she will read new poems (!) and we will host some of Maw's favorite writers.
We're talking about using the old grey matter, about having a deep think, really putting the mental tools to use and once you do, what's next? We're thinking about thinking and thinking it's going to be pretty f'n great.
