SUMMARY:Two Natures Novel Launch & Poetry Reading
DESCRIPTION:  \nAn evening of gay literature with two award-winning authors. \nJendi Reiter kicks off her book tour for her debut novel\, Two Natures (Saddle Road Press)\, the spiritual coming-of-age story of a New York City fashion photographer during the 1990s AIDS crisis. Midwest Book Review calls it “a powerful saga” with “intense revelations about what it means to be both Christian and gay”. \n  \nCharlie Bondhus will read from the revised (and remixed!) edition of his first book\, How the Boy Might See It (reissued last year by Jane’s Boy Press)\, plus new work. His most recent book\, All the Heat We Could Carry–voiced by a veteran of the Afghanistan war and his homefront lover–won the 2014 Thom Gunn Award for Gay Poetry. Carolyn Forché calls it “a rare\, brilliant and necessary book”. \nJoin the conversation. Like The Good Men Project on Facebook. \n  \n \nJendi Reiter is the author of the novel Two Natures (Saddle Road Press\, forthcoming 2016) and four poetry books and chapbooks\, most recently Bullies in Love (Little Red Tree Publishing\, 2015). Her stories have appeared in The Iowa Review\, American Fiction\, The Adirondack Review\, Bayou Magazine\, and Literal Latte. Writing awards include a Massachusetts Cultural Council Artist’s Fellowship. She is the editor of WinningWriters.com\, an online resource site for creative writers. Visit her blog at www.jendireiter.com and follow her on Twitter @JendiReiter . \n  \nHeadshot by Alan Barnett\nCharlie Bondhus‘s second poetry book\, All the Heat We Could Carry\, won the 2013 Main Street Rag Award and the 2014 Thom Gunn Award for Gay Poetry. His work appears in Poetry\, The Missouri Review\, Columbia Journal\, The Bellevue Literary Review\, Nimrod\, Copper Nickel\, and others.
