Join us for a FREE monthly reading series, Malvern’s Multi-Verse, in which we explore the infinite possible (multi)verses of Austin’s boundless poetic universe!

Held on the fourth Tuesday of every month, Malvern’s Multi-Verse features readings from guest poets, plus a Q & A session. Space-time might be flat and stretch out infinitely, but Malvern’s Multi-Verse is well-rounded, lasts for about an hour, and includes free cookies! Yes indeed, it’s the best of all possible worlds…

This month’s Malvern’s Multi-Verse will be hosted by our Curmudgeon in Chief, Joe Bratcher, and will feature readings and discussion with Thom the World Poet (pictured at right).

Thom is an improvising versifier in the Bardic tradition. He works with musicians of various persuasions, including Gong, Kangaroo Moon, and Invisible Opera Company of Tibet. He also publishes books which now number 253. He has hosted EXPRESSIONS for the last twenty years, and supports open mics and Poetry Festivals. He is a co-founder of the Austin International Poetry Festival.
