SUMMARY:((field generator)) Andrew Zawacki @ Saturn Bar
DESCRIPTION:Dear comrades near & far\, \nWe’re thrilled to welcome Andrew Zawacki to the field on Saturday\, November 14th at Saturn Bar. \nLearn more about Andrew below—and check out the generator (i.e. the creative prompt) he’s given us to play with. His “LYRICAL DATA” is an elastic invitation to let what data sets we’re already materially entangled with—polling numbers\, B-side titles\, stats\, lunar phases\, climatic or personal weathers—sound through our poetic forms. And form is key: will it be a “sonnet\, sestina\, villanelle\, ghazal\, haibun\, tanka\, Fibonacci sequence” or some other freaked form that allows all that matter to really sing? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nAndrew Zawacki is the author of six poetry books: These Late Eclipses (Verge\, 2025)\, Unsun: f/11 (Coach House\, 2019)\, Videotape (Counterpath\, 2013)\, Petals of Zero Petals of One (Talisman House\, 2009)\, Anabranch (Wesleyan\, 2004)\, and By Reason of Breakings (Georgia\, 2002). Last year\, Photoworks UK released Endscape\, a book of poetry and photography. His poems have appeared in The New Yorker\, The New Republic\, The Nation\, and other international journals. In addition\, he has published four books in France: Sonnetssonnants\, translated by Anne Portugal; Georgia and Carnet Bartleby\, both translated by Sika Fakambi; and Par Raison de brisants\, translated by Antoine Cazé and a finalist for the Prix Nelly Sachs. His translation of Sébastien Smirou\, My Lorenzo (Burning Deck)\, received a French Voices Grant\, and his translation of Smirou’s See About (La Presse) earned an NEA Translation Fellowship and a fellowship from the Centre National du Livre. A former fellow of the Slovenian Writers’ Association\, he edited Afterwards: Slovenian Writing 1945-1995 (White Pine) and edited and co-translated Aleš Debeljak’s Without Anesthesia: New & Selected Poems (Persea). Coeditor of the international journal Verse from 1995 through 2019\, he coedited The Verse Book of Interviews and Gustaf Sobin’s collected and uncollected poems. A 2016 Howard Foundation Fellow in Poetry\, Zawacki is Distinguished Research Professor of English at the University of Georgia. \n  \n\n\n\n  \nOkay\, you know what to do. Check out the generator\, and—let it rip!
