With National Poetry Month behind us, we decided it was time to add a lil’ prose to our busy reading schedule…

On Saturday we welcomed Austin writer (and coeditor of the excellent American Short Fiction) Adeena Reitberger to the Malvern stage. Adeena read from a story in progress called “Dreamers” (which, as she noted, is a name with some historical significance to Malvern Books).

Adeena was joined by Gregory Robinson, who read from All Movies Love the Moon, a collection of prose poems that explores how silent movies made use of words. (All Movies is published by Rose Metal Press, a fantastic indie publisher that specializes in hybrid genres and more experimental work… ask us about them next time you’re in the store!)

For more prose and poetry, be sure to join us next Wednesday, when Tyler Gobble returns to host another round of Everything is Bigger. This month’s indomitable readers are Tim Earley, Jess Stoner, and Will Clark.
