Please join us for a book launch event for Zilka Joseph, poet, educator, editor and manuscript coach, who will talk about her poetry and read from her new book Sharp Blue Search of Flame published by Wayne State University Press.

Sharp Blue Search of Flame is an exploration in poetry of a complex network of nuanced journeys into a variety of worlds. The searingly rich poems reflect Zilka Joseph’s own history of living in Eastern and Western cultures, as well as the influences of her Jewish Indian roots. Joseph’s free verse and forms shift scenes from the real to the imagined landscapes of the mind, and search for fulfillment and solace amidst the terrifying beauty and chaos of the human condition.

This event is free and open to the public, however registration is requested for planning purposes:
